Could you go back and smooth the sand and put just one set of footprints please.( this is my attempt at humour)

I really like the composition and the sky but I feel the sand and the cliffs are too light and doesn't match the lack of light in the sky. IMO definitely worth darkening the left hand corner of the image.  :)

Shadow detail was brought out a bit in LR, but I disagree that it doesn't match with the sky.  Looking with the naked eye and without the camera, the "underexposure" doesn't happen. 

I am sure others feel the same as you do.  I do have a darker version, I just don't prefer it.  Keep the f/b coming in my future posts.

I have to agree. Also, the title "Erosion", while I understand the connection, just doesn't seem to the strongest or most relevant moniker.

Good image. I would crop out the bottom third or so.

The "sand and cliffs too light" was my first thought but this is a wonderful image, well framed and with a dramatic sky.

Eye is attracted to the bottom left, that's for sure.  Not much to see down there, but it leads into the more interesting parts nicely.  Good color, time lapse exposure, cliff detail.
