The temperature in the Namibian desert is brutally hot — and yet trees grow and thrive, sustained by the intense seasonal rains that arrive in winter.
In this image, a solitary tree stands within a sweeping curve of red sand, its presence emphasised by the simplicity of the surrounding landscape.
Captured at first light, the low sun casts gentle shadows across the damp ground, revealing subtle textures and patterned vegetation on the grass fairy circles. A sense of scale is quietly reinforced as a winding track leads the eye through this surreal and tranquil environment.
Morning Tree is available as a 41 x 69 cm print in a limited edition of 10. It is professionally printed on 300 gsm smooth cotton Fotospeed paper and can be purchased unframed or framed.
