Deserts Around the World

December 31, 2015 By Marsha J Black Leave a Comment

From Death Valley and the Grand Canyon to the Australian Outback, this collection of Desert Photographs showcases the vast landscape, brilliant colors and the constantly-changing contrast of light and shadows that transform nondescript sand dunes shaped by the wind into dramatic golden landscapes. Photographs and notecards can be purchased on my Etsy VisualTravelsPhotos store.
