Beautiful. It is rare to have landscapes nowadays that have nothing obstructing or littering the view of electricity posts, wind turbines etc.

Goodness, that’s a lot of sand.
Are there reasons for some dunes to be so tall compared to others that are nearby? Like an under-sand shelf creating a disruption?

That I’m not sure about… But I learned recently that Beduins know their position by the colour and shape of surrounding dunes. What is more, dunes form at 90 degrees to the prevailing wind…
