Dreamlike Forest Landscape in Namibia

DeadVlei or Dead Vlei (dead marsh) is an otherworldly landscape which is a sun-blackened dead forest in a dried oasis surrounded by rust-orange giant sand dunes. The trees are estimated to be approximately 900 years old, however they have not decomposed due to the dry climate. Deadvlei is a heaven for photographers as the contrast between colors of the nature and the sky make incredible images.
