Description
Namibia 2010
It is the vast spaces of nothingness that fascinates me and makes me love this country so dearly!
We took 2 trips into the Namib desert. I shot this image on the first trip. (This is north of the Swakop River meaning that there are no dunes.) We actually visited some old mineral mines no longer in use and this was en route. At this stage we were still on a clear road but later on followed a "road" that my brother got from Tracks 4 Africa and uploaded on his GPS! This "road" turned out to be "invisible" and after a few worried hours and some tempers flaring, we reached a clear road again! I thought it was great fun though!
Thank you for your valued comments and favs on my "I see the sea" upload of yesterday!
Stay well!
Hugs

That's a whole lot of nothing. Great shot!
A fascinating shot and story. Thanks Carin.
A wonderful lead-in of the tracks to the clouds in the background. Hmm, I wonder how many prospectors found that there was more than nothing there! Clive
like the compostion, great shot Carin
Yes! A brilliant classical composition!!
Dave stole my initial thought! Wow, that's a big empty! Great capture, wonder how many people get terminally lost out there and are never found?
definitely not trackless wasteland....
Wow, this seems to go on forever--infinity and beyond!!
I would find this very depressing,I have to have green unless I'm on the beach! Superb pic, though!
Wonderful capture!
love deserts ...We are going to Namibia probably end of the year ! looking forward to see your photos !!!
Great road!
Makes you wonder why the road curves.
This nothing looks fascinating. :-D
To infinite and beyond. Good POV.
Wow, there really is nothing, bet it is silent, loving this journey so far!!!!
Those are definitely some wide open spaces! Nice picture!
Greaty shot and composition !
There is something about stark nothingness that I like too. This image of yours shows off nothing to a "T". LOL. In most cases that wouldn't be a compliment. In this case it is a big compliment!!! I lived for two years in the high Mojave Desert of Southern California. It looked like the moon:)
Fantastic! There is something cleansing about these great expanses, it is surprising how empty desert has so much to say. Glad you made it out, this kind of land does not tolerate error.
very fine pic!
superlative, creative image!
Nice place to visit but I bet you wouldn't want to live there hehe
Capital capture of the rocky road as it undulates into the distance, Carin! And, no inn, motel, or gas/petrol station for miles around. Like, how about paving the road to nowhere?
This is stunning! This image depicts my inner emotions to a Tee right about now.... such a wonderfully isolated and peaceful pathway... leading perhaps to no where, but every so enticing and inviting! Exquisite POV and texture!
Wow ... that's an astonishing sight! Namibia has such a variety of terrain. Excellent image!
Wow for nothing this is really beautiful!
Great shot but I would hate to get stuck out there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful nothing!!! Great shot, Carin!
Awesome it is!!
