[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
On a short stop at the Crystal Mountain while on the way to the White Desert, I saw this detail in the sand. I thought it might make it for a pretty naive composition. The light of the setting sun gave the sand some golden colours.

This hill is called Crystal Mountain, as some crystals of quartz (or a stone whose name I've forgotten) continuously goes up to the surface. The landscape on top of it is amazing, as you have a dazzling view over the rest of the surrounding desert. You really feel like you're on Mars when you drive through the Western Desert. It's such a big change with the green Ireland ;o)

Hi Clement, good image, simple but beautiful and powerfull.
good quality, colours and composition.
thanks, ciao

I wouldn't call it naive. Looking down to earth can never be naive. A good photographer is not limited to what is straight in front of him, for he has the freedom to look everywhere, from everywhere possible.

Hi Clément,
Est-t-on sur terre?
J'aime
Bravo!
Nicolas

I don't know why exactly but I really enjoy watching this picture.
Nice work
