one plans a shoot, the weather is great (which is not that often in new zealand) and then you just look at the scene instead of shooting it, because we live in aotearoa - the land of the long white cloud. that's just landscape photography for you!

Serra Cafema Camp is one of the most remote camps in all of Southern Africa and offers one of the most memorable experiences in Namibia. Inspired by the pioneering spirit of the area and the Himba aesthetic, Serra Cafema is an unexpected oasis of luxury and spaciousness perched on the Kunene River which forms Namibia's northernmost border.
The camp's Portuguese name comes from the mountains to the north that dominate the skyline. The region is shared with wonderful Himba people who are some of the last true nomadic people in Africa. The Kunene River is the only permanent source of water in the whole region and the river creates a lush oasis along it's banks surrounded by rugged mountains and sand dunes.
Wilderness Safaris is first and foremost a conservation company and Serra Cafema Camp is leased from the 300 000-hectare Marienfluss Conservancy which is comprised primarily of local Himba people, one of the last semi-nomadic peoples on earth.  Successful ecotourism the most important revenue earner and employer for communities.

Watching this is like being there again, and breathing in Africa at its best. Your talent is boundless, as surely that is what every artist strives for-to transport the viewer to that place in all but reality.
