I *really* like this image...but (*) the tire tracks run counter to your title. Ignoring that, I love it! -Ed Hahn

Beautiful pastel colors and tracks, although I feel that the blurry space to the left is a tad excessive

I like it! It is very dreamy with vast sand and air space around the people underlining the idea. –Roumen

I actually did do that a bit. When you look at the people closeup they are starting to discolor b/c of it and so I didn't want to push it any further. :( ~ Lonnit

Lensbaby rules. Maybe an alternative title could be "Imagine Earth Without Water"..? Or "Imagine One Day Without Water".

Nice soft colours. As a humble suggestion of improvement(?) I would say try to make the image more contrasty by making the people darker and the sky/sand/everything else lighter (without blowing the highlights). I think that would increase the images dreamy feeling. /Jonas

Gotta love that lensbaby! It's a cool shot. It almost looks like snow in a blizzard. It's a great illustration of how something small can be the central focus of an image.

Ok, I struggled with that too. I was going for the Lenon verse b/c of Olaf's reference. I was implying there's no OTHER people! LOL! I'll change the title. :) ~ Lonnit

Boy are you quick! LOL! I just put this up a few minutes ago. I took my Lensbaby for a spin today - the first time I've used it with any distance. I'd only tested it on closeup work. It takes some getting the hang of, but it's a fun change of pace. ~ Lonnit

But there *are* people? Good shot but the title doesn't quite cut it for me.

Your getting value for money from the lensbaby :-) I like it - the colour of the sky and sand work well together, and the lensbaby effect is a nice touch, giving a dreamlike 'imagined' quality.
