poetry of silence is an ongoing work of abstract aerial desert photography realized in the namib desert and it's surroundings.
All pictures were taken with a high resolution 50 mp camera from about 1500 meters over the ground flying with a helicopter.
Poetry of Silence XVII was created in the restricted area of the northern namib close to the angolan border.
The Namib Desert is often referred to as the world’s oldest desert. It has been in existence for some 43 million years, remaining unchanged in it’s present form for the last 2 million years.
Its name is derived from the Nama language, implying “an area where there is nothing.”
