Small hillocks in the distance while traveling from Aswan to Abu Simbel in Egypt

Small hillocks in the distance while traveling from Aswan to Abu Simbel in Egypt

The distance from Aswan to Abu Simbel is of approximately 260 km by road, and a fairly non-crowded road it is. There are 3 main ways that tourists get from Aswan to Abu Simbel, these being through road, through a flight to the small airport at Abu Simbel, and through cruise ship on Lake Nasser from Aswan to Abu Simbel. The road from Aswan to Abu Simbel is a straight road without many disturbances (with very little traffic on the road); due to security constraints, vehicles are only allowed from Aswan twice a day in convoys (which can contain a large number of vehicles) with police protection. On the way, there are hillocks that can be visible in the distance, such as these hillocks in the photo. I liked this photo, where there is a combination of hillocks in the distance, clouds covering the sky and an overall feeling of emptiness.
