Another publication in National Geographic

I'm proud to announce that National Geographic has selected yet another one of my images for their magazine.


The image is featured in the April issue as a double page spread, and shows the inside of one of the abandoned houses in Kolmanskop, Namibia.

Kolmanskop is a deserted diamond mining town in the middle of the dunes of the Namib desert. Once a thriving town, it was suddenly abandoned in the 50's when more diamonds were found in another place. Since then, the desert has been claiming back her territory. The early morning sun only shines directly into this room at a specific time of year.

This image is available as a Limited Edition fine art print. Please check out the Shop section on our website for prices and sizes.

Marsel, please point me out this spot on your tour as I think this is one of the most beautiful places of Kolmanskop according to the photo's I saw of this location.
