Description
Namibia 2009
This is the very start of the sand (dune) desert of the Namib just south of the Swakop River. It is incredible how the river literally splits the two parts of the desert in two! I have captured this image on my 2009 trip.
Thank you for popping in and for your valued support in comments and favs on my previous uploads!
Stay well!

Outstanding capture! Love the composition. :)
Very well composed with the bushes on the right. It helps the eye into the image.
W O N D E R F U L !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
very very beautiful !
Zooming really brings this to life. The dunes appear to be layered... Colors and lighting add depth. I lived two years in the Mojave High Desert area of Southern California years ago...as night comes on only the far horizon is left and all landmarks needed to navigate by eye at night are lost. Love your composition.
It does look so dessolate but so beautiful!!!!!
What an impressive landscape. Excellent panorama, looks fantastic!
Excellent landscape , Carin !
I agree, the silhouette on the left just grounds the composition. Lovely colours, Clive
superbe photo!
What a marvellous composition, Carin!
Another Beauty Carin.

So desolate and yet so beautiful. wonderful capture.
Very beautiful capture, Carin! Love these scenes
Excellent work!!
This is such a beautiful view and I so love the tree in the left front. Gives a perfect sence of depth.
Excellent capture! Hard to believe there is a river around there. ;)
they are beautifully rich coloured dunes Carin
Beautiful land out there.... Aloha
What a beautiful expanse of red sand! Lovely capture!
Beautiful contrast between the sky and sand. This is what is known as 'one big empty'. The skeletal remains of the plant not only anchor the image but re-enforce the theme of desolation. Excellent composition.
Stellar shot of the wonderful Namibia vista, with the barren branches of the tree to the left adding depth to the image, Carin.
such natural beauty and awesome landscape
This is just splendid, Dierbaar. I want to walk out there ... just a little ways ... alone ... and stand for just five minutes. That's all. Then we can go. Wow. You tempt me, woman!!
Great presentation, love the clearness what you can see in this, also in the sand.
Love the composition, Carin. Beauty!
Wonderful natural beauty, dear Carin. Excellent work. Hugs. Diane. xx
