Desert sands and salt 2

A relatively small salt lake and sand dunes in Central Australia about 330 km northwest of Alice Springs taken from the air. The unvegetated sand is a mobile sand dune.

 

The smoke in the distance is from fires which have been deliberately lit. Small scale planned burning in the cooler months of the year can reduce the risk of wildfires occurring during the very hot summers.

 

Thanks for visiting. I am very grateful for the very kind comments and faves which have been left.
