Anyway, I've been voting, and found two nice images of sand dunes. I might have posted the second one before; oh well, it's still a great image. As is common, click for full size.

It'd be a good idea to bring some water if you're going on a hike in these parts.

Looks like my old stomping grounds in the Namib. Flying over the sand sea is unforgettable, but if you were stuck out there, it would be a certain, miserable death.
