Picture of the Day: Camels Crossing the Sahara
In this beautiful capture by Ingeun Nam, we see a group of camels crossing Erg Chebbi, located in the Moroccan territory of the mighty Sahara Desert.
An erg (also sand sea or dune sea, or sand sheet if it lacks dunes) is a broad, flat area of desert covered with wind-swept sand with little or no vegetative cover. Erg Chebbi is one of Morocco’s two Saharan ergs. The other is Erg Chigaga near M’hamid.
