Eroded desert rock outcrops

Rock formations eroded by wind over millions of years at al-Galamun, near Dahkla Oasis, Western Desert, Egypt. The Western Desert covers an area of some 700,000 km2, thereby accounting for around two-thirds of Egypt's total land area. Dakhla Oasis is one of the seven oases of Egypt's Western Desert (part of the Libyan Desert). It lies in the New Valley Governorate, 350 km (220 mi.) and measures approximately 80 km (50 mi) from east to west and 25 km (16 mi) from north to south.
