Oman - Deep in her prayers in Wahiba Sands during Sunset Time

    Wahiba Sands lies in the eastern region of Oman. The sands stretch from north to south 180 kilometres, east to west 80 kilometres, with high dunes, extensive woodlands and an unspoiled coastline. Some of the sand dunes are 100 meters in height. Total land area is approximately 12,000 square kilometres with about 3,000 Bedu of varying tribal origins including Janabah, Mawalik, Hikman, Amr and Wahiba.

    Evening conditions in Wahiba sands seem to be tricky for a photographer as it gets rather windy and the sand is blowing everywhere, however at the same time it creates fantastic new opportunities.
