Imposing

A couple of mountain shots taken while driving back to Muscat from Nizwa (actually shot while we were lost and trying to find a way back on to the highway). I always thought Oman was just a desert country, but there seem to be more mountains than desert, and imposing ones at that.

Another capture posted today of a new gate to Nizwa:

Nikon D810 ,Nikkor AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8G ED
1/250s f/11.0 at 70.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

It all seems so barren and inhospitable. V

They are striking and rather formidable looking in this fine shot. V

The vehicle parked there gives a good indication of the size of those mountains.
