The afternoon sun slants low over ochre dunes as a string of camels rocks forward, each swaying step drawing you deeper into the Thar’s quiet. By sunset the heat loosens and the dunes take on hard edges; by night the sky becomes a wide, cold ceiling studded with stars — the camel drivers stoke a small fire and the desert seems to hold its breath.
