This shot was taken in the desert in Abu Dhabi during sunset. This sunset was perfectly laying a cover of beautiful orange, red and yellow tones over these impressive sand dunes. The person walking in the foreground of this huge landscape made the composition complete for me. During post processing I brightened and intesified the colours of the sand dunes as they were quite dark out of camera and aplied some dodging and burning to enhance the contrast.

I like the tiny person in shots like this. Really elevates it above just looking like a screensaver.

Thanks Logan! I totally agree, I also think people or familiar things always help to get a better feeling of scale, especially in a landscape shot.
