@Mikhail Lukichev The camera I will bring is a Nikon D850 with a 24-70mm f/2.8 lens. Apart from the camera: tripod and a remote timer as I want to test for long exposures. One item I've found useful and would like to suggest is a small brush, I carry one with me to remove sand from camera and first element of the lens I am using.

I've been in three Carnity drives so far and I've seen so many spots where garbage is left behind, it is really sad. Today, my son and I were in Al Qudra, we came across a spot (24o 47' 50" N / 55o 24' 32" E) where clearly there was a year end's party with lots of trash left behind, my son has been listening in the radio the campaign "Keep the desert clean" and asked if we could clean a bit, which I could not help but agree to. He used his little shovel to pile garbage, I put on gloves and picked up around 4 bags of trash, mostly whatever was on the surface, bottles of liquor, tin cans of all sorts, unused plastic plates, water bottles, etc. There is so much garbage still there, buried in the sand, if anyone can let me know how to send the location to DM then I will be happy to do so. We ensured we wore a mask at all times and sanitized well after picking up and dropping the bags in the trash bin.

We had a fun and scenic drive, those views were spectacular, thank you @Frederic and also many thanks to @Kailas and @Veedooshee for supporting, the trip was fluid. I've left a few pictures in the gallery. Have a nice week ahead!

Hi Frederic, thank you and yes the night shot was at 24mm f/2.8, 25s exposure time and ISO 800.

Hi there, The opportunity to roam around and record moments in photos is wonderful. I use two cameras, a Nikon D850 (two lenses a 24-70mm f2.8G and a 70-300mm VR f/4-5.6G) and a Fuji X100T (fixed lens and perfect for street and travel photography). If there is an opportunity to meet for a photography drive count me in! Best regards to all!

Hi Frederic - yes I operate the compressor with engine running and A/C on. The compressor is still working. I will try once again with 30A fuses, thanks for the advice!

Hi @Frederic here are the photos.

Guys - I've got an ARB twin piston installed onboard my car, it was working great until recently it started blowing fuses, the ARB provided fuses are 30A which I replaced by two 70A and were blown today whilst I was inflating, luckily I had 4 spares and could finish inflating. Anyway, would you know of or could anyone recommend a good car electrician to have a look at it? I searched in Internet and there are quite a few, but instead of picking up one blindly or just by reading reviews, I am more inclined to go by a recommendation. As to the topic of this discussion, and based on this recent experience with the fuses, I would also suggest to keep a back up compressor, perhaps a cheaper (but capable) one. Thanks in advance!
