	Domien, thanks for posting these additional images of this spectacular desert. They are all most interesting in their variation, but for me the archetypical scenes are #5 (looks too daunting to attempt to traverse by foot), #6 (picture postcard perfect) and #7 (the emptiness). TFS.

	Thank you Joe, Walking up the sandy hill was very heavy. But you could admire the sunset (I was told) We met a surprising number of people walking around there.

	Very nice set of a place I will never get to see live. I especially like #2, a self-portait (!), for its framing and unusual compositions. Very imaginative.

	Superb set, Domien. I am another admirerer of #7 in particular - which shows a wonderful light! TFS!

	Thanks for sharing these Domien, lovely images. As the light changes so does the desert and that's why nr 7 is slightly my favourite.

	Thanks, Harald and Peter, Roger It always pays off to rise early. Roger, it was intentional but the selfie worked out better then expected.
