Aeolian Cardi
As you look out across the arid landscape before you the winds swirl and sweep across the sands of the deserts, moving and lifting grains of sand, creating and transforming the landscape. These waves and ripples are created not by water but by wind. As you walk across the sand your feet sink ever so slightly and you can feel the warmth of the wind upon your face. Then you turn to see all evidence of your steps be erased.
