Camel Thorn Trees

This photograph looks like it could be a painting. The contrast with a bright orange sand dune as the backdrop to the dark snarled trees is more than eye catching. I came across this on Huffington Post this morning and had to put it up. Frans Lanting took this while visiting Namib-Naukluft Park in Africa for National Geographic.

Incredible Trees


I came across this incredible article about Michael Nichols and his quest to document one of mother nature's most incredible contributions to our natural world.

Here is some more info on the National Geographic website.

I was going to post about this a long time ago but a conversation during a pizza baking get together I was invited to by my dear friend Kelliann pushed me to get on it already and make the post. Brett, if you read this I expect a comment. ha.

William Albert Allard




Check out the work of William Albert Allard. I can't get enough of it. Especially the collection entitled Out West. He worked for National Geographic. It makes sense. He kills it.
