This is just stunning. The colors are so soft and muted and the perspective is of course totally unique. I almost would have liked more contrast and darkness in the shadows for a bit more roughness....it's so soft. It's a lovely image for sure.

Love the subject matter for starters, but the colors are just on the money. Lighting perfect. Great shot! Where may I ask is the photo shot?

It's a brilliant photo but wish to understand how it qualifies for 'Empty Background' contest. The background shows sand dune activities in clarity. So background is certainly not empty.

Balloon? Parachute? or a Satellite against a desert moon? Almost abstract...the ambiguity drew me in to inspect. Congrats.

simple but beatiuful, at first it looked like a sea shell in the sand, great colors, the dark shaded sand dunes, the car tracks the sand, the speckled brush in the sand

Location
Balloon ride over the desert in Dubai.Time
This was just after sunrise.Lighting
All natural light from the sun coming up.Equipment
Canon T5i with a Canon 18-200 zoom lens.Inspiration
I was taking a lot of pictures of the sunrise, and we happened to go over the other balloon in the tour. I thought it was an interesting shot to get it from above and the natural light was perfect.Editing
Just did a very basic enhancement in windows photo editor.In my camera bag
Canon T5i with an 18-200 Canon lens and a Canon Rebel converted to infrared with a Canon 18-135 lens.Feedback
If you take a balloon ride, take pictures in every direction.
