I like the rippled wind patterns in the sand and the wide expanse. The sky is menacing, dark with cloud swirls, great contrast to the mostly warm golden tones and shades of the desert.

You know, I've seen several versions of it and it still makes no sense to me. I may just have to read the stinkin' book one of these days. The sand worms are pretty darn cool, however.

Stunningly beautiful. Great colour and detail. Surely unusual to get a sky like that in the desert.

It feels to me more sky needed to be in the frame.

Interesting subject and composition, especially with the vertical lines in the sand and dark horizontal ones in the clouds. And some more amorphous shapes in the sky to break up the regularity of the patterns.

Seriously beautiful, although the colors seem a bit unnatural. Also, I understand the huge foreground, but it might be a tad TOO much huge foreground.
