Lencois Brazil

The vast, undulating dunes of Lençóis Maranhenses in northeastern Brazil create a surreal landscape, where seasonal rains carve out temporary lagoons. These turquoise and dark pools, trapped in the white sand, contrast dramatically with the overcast sky. Captured from above, the image highlights the region’s unique topography and transient beauty, shaped by nature’s rhythm. The scene evokes both tranquility and isolation, a testament to the fragile harmony between water and desert. Photographer Daniil Korzhonov frames the moment with a sense of quiet grandeur.
