It is not hot early morning in Moroccan Sahara. Air is refreshing until sun is low. But colors !!! Colors are oversaturated. Nevertheless that only two - blue and yelow.
The picture is taken riding the camel from oasis.

Sunset in a desert is something amazing... It is almost impossible to describe by words. It must be seen. Try to feel it by this photo.

Summer time at Curonian Spit, Lithuania. What I really like there is clean amazing sand dunes and beaches with amazing sand patterns. And even on the sand flowers are still growing and blooming there...

Enjoy the scenery!

Check the profile out, the user name and he image serial number are the same! Maybe "Libork" is on shutterstock and steemit!

[zanoni]

sorry if this is the case, I will delete the shutterpic. On Steemit is too much plagiarism already, that's why many people look twice on some pics.
Best regards
Tom

[vinceboisgard]

I don't know libork from steemit is libork from Shutterstock, I commented on libork original post asking him to clarify the situation here. Let's wait for him to interact and explain.

[zanoni]

yes, good idea, let's wait, we will hear.

[libork]

Yep, I am the same libork as on shutterstock - this is my picture then during my holiday last august in the Netherlands. Not sure how could I prove it though - I will add the link to my shutterstock profile in my steemit profile.
Thanks to @vinceboisgard for alerting me.

[ladytsfrancine]

flag/downvote

[vinceboisgard]

Wait, before flagging someone and affect his or her reputation, you need to be sure it is about plagiarism! You can not flag without being sure!!!!

Check the comment I left with the screenshot. Maybe @libork is the same person!

[libork]

I find this entirely inappropriate. The picture is my own, I have done nothing wrong.

[ladytsfrancine]

I haven't done anything... I just commented to flag/downvote in case you stole that photo... but you proved its your own then its good for us to know... Maybe next time you post you may include links to other pages where you posted the same photos

[vinceboisgard]
