Great Sand Sea

The Great Sand Sea situated in Western Egypt is the third largest sand-accumulation in the world, about the size of Oregon. Spanning the 600km between Siwa in the north and the Gilf Kebir Plateau in the south, the Sand Sea forms a natural barrier between Egypt and Libya. From west to east, this barren but extremly beautiful land is about 250km wide, though it reaches 400km in the south. Nothing lives here but the wind, and nothing moves here but the sand.

The pictures were taken with a Fuji S2 Pro using either a 12-24mm, 50mm or a 80-400mm lens.
