On the road, Sahara to Ouarzazate

We spent most of the day driving from the Sahara, in southeastern Morocco, to Ouarzazate, our somewhat boring stop for the night before reaching Marrakech.

This ksar (kasbah, castle) was an interesting sight in the middle of the arid landscape.

That was once a magnificent castle, it is huge. Great shot Helen.

So classic! It is what one would imagine if thinking of a desert town, complete with palms! V

It's quite a large structure, maybe a town or castle?..V

A fine looking structure, has a cinematic look to it. Excellent clarity and light. V
