Namibian Landscapes

These 26 images were taken ten years apart, during two separate trips to Namibia, in 2006 and 2016. When I took them I had no idea of presenting them together in a portfolio like this. I was simply impressed - as who could not be? - by the stark beauty of the landscape, the quality and clarity of light, the emptiness and sense of space, the sense of a vast and indifferent silence, of the land just being there, changing, chameleon-like, in the light, as the earth turned on its axis. And then, looking through these images again, I saw how bringing them together, in a single portfolio, provided a sense of a greater whole, of unity and contrast, a feeling of presence and perhaps even love.
