Desert Sunset Time-lapse

Time-lapse from static camera: The sun sets over sand dunes in the Sahara desert, transitioning from bright daylight through golden hour to deep twilight. The shadows from the dunes lengthen dramatically across the rippled sand, creating strong contrast between lit and shadowed areas. The sky progresses through a spectrum of colors - yellow to orange to pink to purple to deep blue. The first stars become visible as darkness falls. The sand color shifts from bright gold to warm amber to cool blue in shadow areas. Wind creates subtle movement in the sand particles along the dune crests. The composition emphasizes the graphic quality of the curved dune shapes and shadow patterns.
