중국 Gobi 사막의 노래하는 모래-Hongoryn Els

Perhaps the most picturesque part of the Gobi Desert is located in the national park Gobi - Gurvan - Saihan .

Called this place Hongoryn Els , which translates as " singing sands " .

This is a long strip of sand dunes , up to 300 meters , and a length of about 180 kilometers .

 In parallel with the sands flowing river - a brook Hongoryn - Gol , creating a green foundation dunes , often with swamps and lakes of stagnant water .

 and sand, we spent two days , completely feeling everything , that can provide the desert - and wild , scorching heat , sandstorm and rain the night .

1.

2. The first impression of the look on the dunes - what a hefty Mahina ! Almost a steep slope .

We have become close to the place , where centralized bring tourists to a kind of " climbing " .

At the foot of the dunes pushed them out of the car , show up on top - crawl ! And go up vertically about 200 meters , on the sand crumbles ...

Believe me , it's really hard .
In the photo to try to find a scale figure climber . found ?)

3. Right at our camp was a couple of lake , which came camels and goats to drink . The combination of sand and water is very strange looks )

4. For me, the desert - is first of all shapes , patterns in the sand . I am ready to spend hours to look for them , and then remove the clock .

 All of these strips make me wild photographic ecstasy )

5. Sometimes in the sand you can find the mortal remains of the locals .

6. We have embarked on a dune . A little out of the way climbers . While climbed on it , we managed to change his mind ten times .

You do step and immediately katishsya sand back . Bottom impression , that the top of the dunes is flat , and there the whole airfield .

But the tip was sharp as a razor , enough space to his legs dangling from the edge , ride the sands )
plus a surprise - wildest wind . the sand was so much , that instantly raised the mouth , nose , ears and other places of interest .

Plus, once settled on the tripod legs , that he began to crackle unpleasant ... .

 7. But it was enough to come down below , the wind died down , and the landscape view space opened .

With a height of about 200 meters of the dunes seem small sandboxes

8. Began search patterns . No artist can not do so beautiful and harmonious , as the nature .

 Although it looks sometimes so , how - Butoh who - the brush twitched )

9. The night was rain and sand in some places still wet . The combination of wet and dry to create amazing patterns

10. Sand photo for memory . I am ready to sit for hours on the warm sand and just contemplate .

It does not feel the time , it seems that you're in a completely different world , where there is no everydayness and nasty attacks civilization ..

11. Above the dunes circling beautiful clouds , which was to inflate to a close , according to universal law of meanness )

12. One of my favorite shots from that shooting , sandy strip - like brush strokes ..

13. And the sun began to go beyond the horizon , and we began to re-ascent of the dune , to remove the sunset from there .

14. Again pinnacle ! At this time, quiet , quiet . Although the first time enough with the head , then to a few days spat sand )

This panorama from 6 vertical shots . Left my footprints in the sand , left to scale .

Right at the bottom is visible group of reservoirs , with dirty water . brook in the sand is a life-giving source for many animals ,

 both domestic and wild .

 We see here a bunch of a wide variety of birds , berdvocheram here would have liked ) Where - there our camp at the bottom ..

15. The wind carried a cloud over his head and a little touch up behind us . It is clearly seen on the left border of the sands photo

16. On the part of the setting sun was not very interesting , and yet , exciting image . Next - descent , dinner .

And sleduyuy day - a real storm in the desert )
