Khawa Sand Dune Kgalagadi South Botswana

I had these thoughts last Saturday while sitting here overlooking the Khawa village during the annual Khawa Dune Challenge. Almost everyone, visitors from South Africa Locals and Khawa residents, were oblivious of the sunset. There were noises from a distance; quadbikes rev roars, Land cruises engine's farts, people cheering, children shouting happily, and loud conversations punctuated with hearty laughter. Nobody cared about the setting sun… I sat here alone and thought of the money I spent chasing sunsets. After photographing, I stayed long until after twilight enjoying a Jagmsater - I had brought bottle of Hennessey as well- and the amazing spectacle of colours before the curtain of darkness fell on the dunes.
