The Spirit of the World ( On and Off)
Want A Ride?
I approached the staff at the hotel where I was staying and told them that I wanted to photograph the sand dunes of the Thar desert at sunrise and sunset. They assigned a very special young man to help me complete the task.
We were up the following morning and he and one of the other staff showed me to a 4 wheel vehicle and we were off. We rode for awhile until the dunes came into sight. "Okay I thought we are going to plow over the dunes in this vehicle. What fun!"
Instead we got out of the vehicle and walked to a camel with a sled like device behind it. They showed how to climb on board and this is how I shot the images that will follow. One has to have a steady hand and a very padded "bottom"to endure the abuse from the wooden device. A sled made the tracks that you saw in the previous photo.
