Photo by @FransLanting Towering dunes roll down to the South Atlantic on the wild Skeleton Coast of Namibia, in the southwest corner of Africa. This area was once known as the Sperrgebiet—German for “prohibited zone”—and was off limits for more than a century as a diamond-mining concession. A few years ago the government made this a national park, allowing visitors on guided tours to experience the pristine landscapes of this great sand sea. #Follow me @FransLanting for more images of wild places around the world.
