Two cranes in flight, their wings and necks forming a heart-like silhouette against a warm sky.Bare, weathered dead trees standing among rocks and desert scrub against a rocky hillside.A figure silhouetted on a beach, framed by the stone arch of an ancient aqueduct ruin at sunset.A crane flying low over misty water at dawn, with a flock of cranes standing in the shallows behind it.A single tree with autumn-colored leaves standing alone in a foggy field.A large flock of cranes standing and flying over misty water at dawn, rendered in black and white.A steep eroded cliff face rising from folded desert badlands.Skiers descending a wide, empty white ski slope, seen from above.A wide flock of cranes standing in shallow water at dusk, with more birds arriving in flight, rendered in black and white.Scattered pale concretions scattered across a desert plain leading to a flat-topped cliff.Salt-encrusted rocks along the shoreline of the Dead Sea, softened by wave motion blur at sunrise.Sunlit desert badlands above the Dead Sea, with distant mountains and the sea visible in the haze.Fresh red-leaved shoots growing beside a cut tree stump in a green meadow.
