One of my favourite #wildlife #photos from #damaraland, #namibia. A #still and #lonesome #oryx in the foreground #juxtaposed against the #energy of the #battle in the background. The #sunlight penetrating through the #dust creates a #raw and #earthy feel. #thisisafrica #nature #photography #travelmoments #animalplanet #natgeowild #wanderlust

More #twyfelfontein ... this time @danfromnam having an Indy moment. Look closely and you can see the animals engraved over 200,000 years ago. This place has big time history. #archaeology #Namibia
