How infinitely far away is the bright, glowing darkness above you and how safe you feel in it!
We lie on a carpet in the middle of the desert Lut and absolute silence surrounds us. We are here to see the Kalouts, a special wind shaped nature (for the experts among you: Yardang).
But finally, especially for this night under the open sky. Previously, we had watched the sunset with Hossein, our guide, then ate delicious and then talked a long time at the campfire. Less than two hours after the sun, the moon has set and that makes every distant star shine all the more.
Shortly after 5 we will get up to greet the sun together again. There are still a few hours left to see stars.
Or rather quickly, with the feeling of total security in this incredible vastness, to fall asleep.
Thanks to Cecil, Jelle, Khalid for the pleasant and snoring-free society!
Such a night is of course not documentable in any way with a mobile phone button ...
But as bonus material: 'You can switch on this tree' (seen during the delicious breakfast on the way back)
Very cool. Does not have much of the optics of "The English Patient".
