Description
Going wild on a burst of rage
A small puff just t make the point clear
It's not suppose to make me scared, only aware
So what would you choose now? Truth or dare?
****
A sudden sand typhoon raised on the side of the road I was driving, on the way from Eilat to Mitzpe ramon.
It was very high (as you can see by the electric stands). It was over in less than 30 seconds and I noticed a few more of these, but much smaller rising around me. It was impressive and strange, but wasn't frightning in any way. It seemed harmless.
No frame on this one since it's not the usual artistic frame and more of a documentary shot. I wanted to present it as plainly as possible to keep the natural look as I can.

wow! that's cool. That must have been spectacular to witness. I can't get over the scale, as it appears to be behind the towers pictured.

They seem harmless, but they'll beat you up pretty badly. Especially if they catch some debris before mauling you.
Lovely shot! I love dust devils!

I saw a very small one on the beach in Holland two weeks ago, very small in comarison to this thing. It probably has another name too, but I'm too lazy to find that out right now. It lifted everyone's stuff and spread it across the beach, it was quite busy that day. I tried to take a few pictures but even though I got my camera from my bag and into position lightning fast, it was already at it's end. I think this is a very, very nice picture.

Oh, if only I could experience these sorts of things....
...And if only I had a camera to carry around with me... What kind would you suggest that isn't really really expensive but is still a very good camera? ^^'
