Sahara Desert, uphill climb

This was quite a steep and high dune; I don’t think I could have climbed it like this Berber is doing. Plus sand is just not the easiest thing to walk in!

Wow, this is a superb shot. Looks like there were a lot of people out there. I can only think what a sand storm would be like out there. Nice image, well make it very, nice image. V.

The blue worn by the Berber against the color of the sand is stellar. A wonderful capture of such incredible place. Just fantastic in all ways. Voted
