Sahara desert witnessed its first snow fall in nearly 40 years last week, and amateur photographer Karim Bouchetata has captured rare and stunning images of the snowfall.
上周，撒哈拉沙漠近40年来首次降雪，业余摄影师卡里姆·布舍塔塔拍到了本次降雪绝美的珍贵照片。

Bouchetata took the photos of the rare occurrence last Monday in the small Saharan desert town of Ain Sefra, Algeria.
布舍塔塔于上周一在阿尔及利亚的撒哈拉沙漠小镇艾因塞弗拉拍下了这一罕见景象的照片。
In his images, a thin layer of snow rests on deep orange dunes and forms whirling patterns where the slopes are too steep for it to settle.
在他的照片中，一层薄雪覆盖在深桔色的沙丘之上，在存不住雪的陡峭斜坡上形成了螺旋形图案。
Snow was last seen in Ain Sefra in 1979, when a half-hour snowstorm stopped traffic.
