死亡沙漠，阿富汗（摄影：Thomas J. Abercrombie）

在阿富汗死亡沙漠Dasht-i-Margo ，路虎身后的小山丘，映出云朵飘飘的奇观——幻景系高达49度的热浪闪烁炫眼所致。

Like drifting clouds, hilltops mirrored in a mirage appear to float behind a Land Rover. The illusion is created by heat waves shimmering in the 120-degree (49-degree-Celsius) temperatures of the Dasht-i-Margo—Afghanistan's so-called "Desert of Death."
