Namibia is a desert paradise for photographers. With its unique cultures and equally unique landscapes, it offers an incredible assortment of photographic opportunities. You will travel in two stretch Landrovers with pop-up roof for game viewing. Everyone will have time to learn and share the experience with your local driver guides. At Sossusvlei, we witness and photograph orange-hued sand dunes towering (some 1,000 feet high) above dead trees at sunrise. At night we will photograph starry skies above skeletal trees in Deadvlei. At Kolmanskop, we wander through abandoned homes that are filled with the shifting sands that are quietly but persistently reclaiming the town. In the south, near Keetmanshoop, we photograph the unique Kokerboom (quiver trees) forest, including a night shoot to photograph starry skies over the unusual trees, and Giant’s Playground, an otherworldly landscape of eroded dolorite boulders. On the desert pan of Etosha, we experience the pilgrimage of a rich variety of wildlife as it comes to the life-giving waterholes within Etosha National Park. You will visit and photograph the wonderful Himba people whose own unique beauty coincides with that of the land as they use the earth to decorate their bodies. The range of photographic opportunities within Namibia is unique, and we have crafted an itinerary that will provide you with as much as possible during the journey.
