How to use this prompt

The power of this image is the gradient, so the negative against "busy patterns" is essential. Dune ridges need a consistent diagonal rhythm; random lumps break the abstraction. 16:9 lets the gradient stretch horizontally, which feels calmer than a square crop. Keep the foreground dune lighter and the background cooler to create depth; reverse the gradient and the scene turns upside-down. If the sand looks plastic, raise CFG to 7 or add "fine grain texture". Avoid hard edges where ridges meet the sky.

Variations to try

Monochrome version: warm sand tones only, from cream to burnt orange
Dramatic shadows version: add long dark shadows from a low setting sun
