THE STORY BEHIND THIS PHOTO

The relentless sun bore down on the vast, unyielding expanse of the Namib Desert as I embarked on a thrilling photographic adventure. The desert, with its endless dunes and scorching sands, held a magnetic allure, and I was on a quest to capture the untamed beauty of an afternoon storm. My name may not be famous in the world of photography, but my passion and thirst for adventure fueled my determination.

My journey to this remote corner of Namibia had been an arduous one. I had endured the unforgiving desert terrain, the searing heat, and the profound isolation that only the desert can provide. But the promise of witnessing and documenting a powerful desert storm was my driving force.

Setting up camp in the shadow of a colossal dune, I meticulously arranged my camera equipment. Everything had to be perfect; there was no room for error. My camera was mounted on a sturdy tripod, and my eyes remained locked on the ever-changing horizon.

As the afternoon sun made its gradual descent, I noticed a subtle shift in the atmosphere. The temperature dropped, and a light breeze stirred the sands, carrying the faint scent of rain. I adjusted my camera settings, prepared to capture the storm as it unfolded.

The first raindrops fell, a gentle and refreshing touch on the parched desert floor. My heart quickened with excitement as I pressed the shutter button, capturing the initial raindrops as they graced the thirsty earth.

The storm continued to intensify, darkening the sky with swirling clouds. Lightning streaked across the horizon, casting an ethereal glow over the dunes. Each flash of light beckoned me to capture the electrifying beauty of the desert storm. The thunder rumbled, echoing through the dunes like a giant's heartbeat, and the rain cascaded down in torrents.

I was drenched, my camera exposed to the elements, but I was undeterred. I couldn't tear my gaze away from the mesmerizing spectacle unfolding before me. The desert, once harsh and lifeless, had transformed into a canvas of movement and emotion. It was both humbling and exhilarating.

Hours passed, and the storm began to relent. The clouds parted, and the sun emerged, casting its golden light on the rain-soaked dunes. I continued to click my camera, each photograph documenting the desert's rebirth.

Exhausted but filled with a sense of accomplishment, I packed up my gear. I had ventured deep into the heart of the Namib Desert, enduring its challenges, patiently waiting for the perfect moment, and reaping the rewards of my dedication. I left with a collection of photographs that would forever preserve the breathtaking beauty of that unforgettable afternoon storm in the Namib Desert. It was a testament to my adventurous spirit and my unwavering commitment to the art of photography, a memory that would remain etched in my heart and my work for years to come.

WHICH FINISH?

Great question! Here's what we recommend...

CANVAS - On trend (we sell heaps) and great for most homes with lots of windows. Soaks up the reflection.
ACRYLIC - On trend with its frameless look. Suits modern homes with big white walls. Highly reflective though.
METAL - The shinny version of canvas. It's framed the same way but instead is very shinny and flat.
FRAMED - Traditional look however we don't sell many framed prints these days.
ROLLED - Perfect if you have your own framer however, remember framing is expensive!
