Morocco: Erg Chebbi Dunes at Sunrise

After spending the night in the Saharan sands under the stars of the Milky Way and full moon, I climbed the tallest dune (not an easy task as every step forward results in an equal slide backward) to watch the sunrise. As the sun went higher, the dunes colors shifted from soft orange to bright orange to yellow. And then it was time to jump in the saddle on a camel and head back to the civilization.
