Nice shot, it sums up the unique Pyla landscape superbly. Yellow Star.

Thanks for the comment Magic. And also thanks for the post in hte forum about making "little planet photos". That was very instructive.

Gil: You're welcome. We visited the dune in early August this year, climbing up from the opposite end and I took a fisheye lens photo similar to yours - it looks like a pie chart showing the proportions of sand, sea, sky and forest! I'll put it on Panoramio at some point but yours definitely has the edge in terms of quality and composition. It's a surprisingly difficult location to photograph well but I think you've captured the essence spot on.

Great scenery. I wonder what makes forest and sand hill go head-to-head.
