Dune 45, Sossusvlei

Quiver Tree forest at sunrise

An abandoned house being reclaimed by the desert

Doors, doors and more doors in Kolmanskop, an abandoned mining town

The shifting sands wrestle with the shade caused by the contours

Deadvlei, a dry lake surrounded by iron-rich red sand dunes

An oryx pauses in the middle of the day

Every shifting dune edge, seen from above, casting shade

Soft sand dunes meeting the cold ocean

Soft folds of sand stretch out as far as the eye can see

Red ocre-colored iron-rich sand dunes

Dust clouds caught in the last rays of the setting sun

An almost translucent gecko at home - in the blazing hot desert

A young Himba child being nurtured by his mother

A Himba lady sporting her traditional head gear
