Thanks for the invitation. Yes, DV is an out of the world place. It also poses some unique challenges for photography. For starters it is very very hot in summer. Summer can also be very hazy and dusty due to wind storms. I went in early spring, late-March to be precise. Spring is cooler, less dusty and you may also catch nice desert flowers blooming. This photo was taken at a place which is iconic and no matter how I look at it, I did not do an iota of justice to the real grandeur of nature.
