I like how your point of view leads the eye onwards through the dunes.

just enough trail to lead through the scene; Lake Michigan is not visible, but its presence is felt

For me it's a surprise. In my mind, being a freshwater lake, I expected the dune system to have many more trees. But as it appears in the photo, it tends to be composed of low herbs.
Superb view!

@Remus: The Dunes at this location are fairly "new", about 40 years of age. And there were times in its early development that residents wanted the Dunes to be "plowed" away and restored to beach.
