    Mars (Miniature) Mountains in Iran

    Situated 40 to 50 km from Chabahar, these mounts are also known as Martian (Merrikhi) Mountains . They have been stretched out parallel to the Makran sea (Oman sea , starting from Kachoo up to the proximity of Gwater Gulf. These Miniature Mounts are extremely beautiful and considered as the symbols of the unique geo-morphological phenomena of this region of the country.

    In the past, Merrikhi Mountains were buried under piles of soil and became visible after a long passage of time. The geometric patterns of the mountains have been created by rapid soil erosion
    caused by wind and rain, as if a skilled painter has carved them. The phenomenon, however, prevents the growth of plants in the region.

    Interesting, both geologically and photographically. I would love to see more photos of this rather unique area. Also, I think this image is rather good. I like the way the mountains retreat into the background on the RHS and the way the clouds appear to meet them at that same point; creating an arrow-like graphic drawing ones attention to those features in the RHS.

    Vaez, sorry I forget sometimes that English is not everyone's first language.
    Bruce was correct, RHS - Right Hand Side [LHS - Left Hand Side]
