Twin Kokerboom

by Mark Dumbleton

The sun shines through the middle of a twin Kokerboom tree creating a double shadow. The harsh desert environment of the Richtersveld in South Africa is home to many great plants and trees.
Equipment: Nikon D3, Nikon AF-S 14-24 f/2.8

Capturing the beauty of our Planet, in all its glory is a great passion. I hope to convey the essence of this beauty in a way that is both creative and natural, sometimes pushing the boundaries to obtain a unique perspective on our natural world.
