Mind Wandering in the Desert

Sometimes all that is needed is to lay down on the desert sand dunes and look up at the drifting sands and sky and let one's mind wander to and fro. One thing I like about some desert landscapes is that world is reduced down to simple forms, patterns of light and shadow, lines and curves. The simple and beautiful essence of the landscape is made all the more apparent in natural near monochromatic scenes such as this one where the primary colors are gold and yellow tones.
