[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
That is how we called our last trip to Southern Africa.
We drove all the way up from the beautyful Cape, South Africa, to Windhoek, Namibia. After some 5.600 km we finished our desert-tour. We drove through the Great Karoo, Namaqualand, Richtersveld, the Kalahari and of course through the Namib desert, where I took this picture.

The "Desert Dunes Dust"-Tour Part II is already booked.

We will drive through the whole Kalahari semi-desert in northern South Africa and Botsuana, but this time with two very little children.

We are already very excited and looking forward to come back to Africa. :-)))

Greetings
Enrico & family

Hi Enrico
great picture for a great place. Colors and sharpness are very good. Death trees gives a good perspective. Well done.
Olivier

Hi !

Beautiful composition !
Only 4 principal colors, curves in the dunes and the tree in the foreground, the diferent trees give perspective, not uniform ground and long shadows. I like it.
