Sandstorm Photos Substantiated!

In response to cries of "Fake" to the sandstorm photos few posts back, I offer the following hotlinked photos of similar phenomenon from a few sights I found that appear quite reliable.

And to top it off, I found my brother narfed the middle photo from no more reputable a source than The National Geographic News. Here's the article in full, with the photo in question, and full credit given to the photographer.

Although I openly invite all Doubting Thomases and Nellie Naysayers to comment on my posts and to correct me when I'm wrong (if indeed it ever even occurs), I will gleefully and with great relish acknowledge your post and correction here, in the same format as originally posted, for all the world to see.

Hah!
