PARCHED EARTH
Wuwei Oasis, Hexi Corridor, Gansu, April 24th, 2006 Ñ During a dust storm, a herder walks on parched earth, bringing back home his flock of sheep. In the back, a forest shelterbelt have been planted to break winds that blow away the fertile soil, left bare after winter and dusty because of drought. The wall of trees also halts encroaching dunes of the neighboring Tengger Desert.
