[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Some peoble may call it dead but when the very first light of the day comes over the Namib-dunes (like the background) you could possibly think: "The dead tree is still alive."!

However - it is not living anymore; the tree died some 1.000 years ago.

But still - the "Dead Vlei" is one of our "wonders of nature".

See you
Enrico
