15th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Solitude

I was visiting the Pyramids of Giza in Egypt and decided to walk around with my camera. I was amazed when I saw a man riding his camel in the desert alone. the scale of vastness was overwhelming yet beautiful. The clouds above created a breathtaking atmosphere as the man is riding out of the darkness and into the light.
