As colourful as her door and what a lovely, hospitable lady! Mondesa township, Swakopmund, Namiba.

Traditionally cattle-herding pastoralists, Herero dress was influenced by the Western culture of German missionaries in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

faces of the wilderness

When thinking of a safari it's usually wildlife that comes to mind. Wilderness Safaris Namibia offers a unique experience - one where wildlife is only part of the journey. The vast, stark landscape and the diversity of its peoples makes Namibia an obvious choice of destination. One gets to experience a balance of cultural and ecotourism unparalleled in Africa, in settings where observes and feels part of an harmonious co-existence of indigenous people and wildlife. These are a few of the images captured over the past few weeks in Damaraland. Enjoy!

Olwen,

This is a stunning site! Thanks for sending it to me. Wonderful photos and I very much like the idea of 'Pink Photography' having several friend who are breast cancer survivours. I wonder if there is a similar group for supporting people with Alzheimers? Beth
