Photos: Western Desert in black and white

I've never thought of the the Western Desert, the oases and Gilf Kebir as anything other than a festival of shape, light and colour but this flickr site, which was thrown at me by Google Alerts, shows it in monochrome. The shapes and light are given the floor and they look fantastic. Well worth a look if you love the Western Desert and you're interested in photography. They were taken in 2009 and uploaded this month. Lovely.
