Today we got up at 4:30 a.m. to visit the Khoichab Today we got up at 4:30 a.m. to visit the Khoichab sand dunes near Aus, in the Namib-Naukluft National Park, at sunrise.

Yesterday I got to see (and photograph) about 100 of them, in what is possibly the most beautiful and dramatic landscape I’ve ever experienced.
