Brunch with Battutah
The joy of reeds
Posted by Michael Skorulski (Cigel, Slovakia) on 1 November 2008 in Plant & Nature and Portfolio.
They are baked in the searing sun and sometimes flattened by strong winds. But these reeds on the edge of a salt flat in Saudi Arabia, still radiate a joy and passion for life.
