NASA Earth Observatory is having a 10th anniversary, and you can vote for the best image (through April 13th; the finals are April 14-27. Voting Info
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.
TOPICS: Arts/Photography; Education; Outdoors; Science
KEYWORDS: abstract; africa; arabia; dunes
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.
