CAMEL TREK
Erg Chebbi is an area of sand dunes on the northern edge of the Sahara Desert in southern Morocco. A number of tourist lodges run camel treks to overnight camps in the dunes. This image is all about light. Late afternoon sun is catching the camels and their leader from exactly the right angle, as well as glancing down the dune behind to provide a warm, diffuse backdrop.
