Desolate

I’ve posted a view of the wadi before, but it looks especially desolate at the height of summer. The fence is the border of the Diplomatic Quarter.

The desert is desolate but magical in its own way. I miss that the most since I moved back east from Nevada. V

Not exactly inviting although the plant life at the bottom would indicate occasional water at least. Vote.
