 Thank you all for the votes and comments!

Captured in Grand Canaria, this is not really the desert, it is an area of coastal dunes.
The mesh pattern is dried mud (it rains sometimes).
Lots of people ther, lots of tracks, and I unfortunately forgot to erase some of them...

I am always in awe of landscape photos - doesn̢۪t matter the terrain - a well captured (as this is) shot transports you there . . . I do not have the eye to capture something like this, you sure have the gift!

Seemingly born for black and white imagery. The textures and contrast are a treat for the eyes. The shapes and contours are almost dizzying to behold.
Would have bumped one if there were no tracks.
Still, co-second favorite of the challenge.

Fun looking for the various tracks in the sand. I'm seeing a mesh pattern in some areas that seem a bit out of place. ???
