Karoo Tour -  is a semi-desert natural region of South Africa.  The Karoo is partly defined by its topography, geology, and climate — above all, its low rainfall, arid air, cloudless skies, and extremes of heat and cold. The Karoo also hosted a well-preserved ecosystem hundreds of million years ago which is now represented by many fossils.
Today it is still a place of great heat and frosts, and an annual rainfall of between 50–250 mm, though on some of the mountains it can be 250–500 mm higher than on the plains.

Fantastic shot!!! Really nice!

They are all great - each is so different from the others. As Hugh said, they are reminiscent of outback Australia.

I particularly like #1 for the wonderful colours and silhouettes - makes me quite homesick!

I like the first photo. And, the second one blew me away. Colors of the vegetation, sunlight on the lambs - beautiful contrast. The lamb on the right is staring at the camera - makes the image more compelling.
