See Namibia and the Skeleton Coast through Stallard?s eyes
Well-known local photographer Scott Stallard recently spent three weeks camped alone in the Namib desert where he documented his experience in unique collection of images.
Mr. Stallard will be sharing experiences with the public on tomorrow at the Bermuda Underwater Exploration Institute (BUEI).
His presentation, ?Namibia: Namib Desert, the Skeleton Coast, the Himba Tribe? starts at 7 p.m. in the Tradwinds Auditorium and tickets are currently on sale from BUEI.
Namibia, a country twice the size of California and located south of Angola and west of Botswana is more diverse and isolated than any other place on earth.
Camped in this vast expanse of sand, Mr. Stallard found himself surrounded by 900 foot rust-coloured dunes, snakes, oryx antelope, desert elephants and giraffe.
He also rented a small plane to shoot aerial photographs of the famed ?Skeleton Coast? strewn with whale bones, sale colonies, ancient shipwrecks and hundreds of miles of diamond fields ? as mentioned in famed Wilbur Smith novels.
Before returning to Bermuda, Mr. Stallard also visited the very northern part of Namibia where he documented the reclusive Himba Tribe and went in search of the rare White Rhino.
