Israel, Negev Dessert: I wandered through this desolate, planetary-impact, scorched landscape armed only with camera and film. Not expecting to find tempreatures of 45 degrees I had neglected to take a water flask. After several hours of dusty adventuring I realised I was far from the car and dehydrated. Buzzards circled lazilly above, expecting me to be their next meal. But my eye was caught by this rugged scene of natural wonder too good to be distracted by any other life threatening obstacles.
