dunescapes
Sandy hill panoramas
Dunescapes are landscapes dominated by sand dunes, whether coastal or desert formations.
The term combines "dune" with the suffix "-scape" (as in landscape) to evoke the visual character of these rolling, windswept terrains.
Photographers and artists often seek out dunescapes for their dramatic lines and shifting light.
The Saharan dunescapes stretched endlessly toward the horizon.
