Alien Sea | Afrikya Photo Diary (June 22-29)
Spicy road trip across a salty, dried-up sea locked in the heart of the desert.. Welcome aboard the adventure time here and every week 💌
Still another perspective.. All the ways lead to our dazzling source of life.. along a surviving water stream meandering through Sahara’s salt pan Chott Djerid, southwestern Tunisia, pictured by Nejib Chouk
All In place.. Frozen in time.. Getting ready for our run and take off.. Destination Sun.. From the heart of Tunisia’s Planet Tatooine.. Across its salt pan, through the lens of Adel Brahem
Beside the road stands a lost boat.. once roaming in the shallow waters of the Saharan largest pan. Contemplated and captured by Ahmed Hachani deep in south Tunisia 📍 Chott Djerid
After the stranded wreckage, here is a wandering human in the alien world of Chott Djerid, a remnant of the Saharan Sea in modern-day Tunisia, captured by Riadh Zarroug
Martian-like scenery here, on our home planet: Tatooine, Tunsia’s Dghoumes Mountains topping its boundless slice of desert.. one we never get enough of.. through the lens of Skander Zarrad
Back to our journey, a spicy one.. meandering through the salty realm of Chott Djerid, the vastest of its kind across Africa’s Sahara desert. Drive.. Fly through the lens of Ghassen Bouabid’s drone in the “Far West” of Tunisia .. Keep exploring!
Neither a mirage, nor an alien voyage.. Here is the ancient sea of Chott Djerid: Dried-up yet still filled.. Locked.. Shallow.. in deep south Tunisia, pictured by Aymen Ben Chikha
.. and here are some formations resembling tiny islets, lost amid the vastness of the lost “sea”: Tunisia’s Saharan Chott Djerid explored and portrayed by Maher Ben Abdallah
