A Desert Sunset

Photographer: Kirsten A. Harr, Location: Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

There's nothing quite like a desert sunset. 

As many photos as I took of the sun setting while we were in Saudi Arabia, I was never able to fully capture the magnitude and beauty of it.  The large golden sun slowly drifting down behind the red sand dunes--one of my favorite things to witness. 

During the hardest times of COVID lockdown--in the blazing hot summer days--we would venture out in the evenings.  We would often climb on the top of a hill and watch the sun drift away in the distance. So beautiful; so calm & peaceful. It was like therapy for my soul.  And then our desert fox 'hunt' would commence. 

Oh yes, we would spend some time walking trails and looking for the elusive desert foxes that lived nearby.  They were easier to spot in the evening and when there weren't as many people around. We spotted them a few times!  These were some of the highlights that kept us going during some hard times.  God's creations.
