These pictures were taken with my Kodak point-and-shoot camera, and then I did some post-processing to enhance the colors because we shot these pictures when the sun was high and bright, so the pictures originally look flat and washed out.
Ah! Post-processing! That’s the thing I cannot do (I don’t know how to do, actually). People make their photos look better by post-processing. I can’t. 🙁
Post processing is a piece of cake with softwares like Picasa, Picnik, Gimp, paint, etc. Photoshop is the favorite among photographers, of course, but I don’t have the patience to learn about it (yet).
I can’t describe in words, how much I am loving this road. Indeed an out of this world vista.!
Waiting for more wonderful pictures, and interesting details.
Raheel, the gorgeous red and golden dunes do make a spectacular scenery. However, it’s not fun driving on that bumpy road, unless one is taking a huge 4×4 jeep (we had taken a small car, hence couldn’t drive past 40 km/hr).
“I can’t help but concoct an adventurous time riding a dirt truck all over that gorgeous sand!” Oh, I’d love to try that! When are you coming to visit us? Let’s hire that truck when you get here 😉
Ohmygosh, Nadia! its like you’re actually taking us with you!
😀
I feel so excited, aha.
I agree with Sajib, the second picture looks like a painting, so beautiful!
Quite adventurous and the most scary journey I ever had. Looking forward for a wonderful virtual tour of our spectacular weekend:)
Yep, scary it was; if our car broke down, we’d be stranded in the middle of nowhere!
The second picture looks more like a painting. Wonderful capture! 🙂
Thank you, Sajib.

Thank you, Smiley. What I did with that picture is crop and increase the saturation level a bit.
