Star Trails over the Namib Dessert – Nikon 5D 24mm 8 Hours

18th June 1994

I was shooting a story about riding across the Namib Dessert in Namibia (obviously) for one of the sunday magazines, I forget which, and shot this one night. We were camped out in the middle of nowhere, and I just opened the shutter after dark, played a torch over the tree for a while, and closed it off before dawn about eight hours later. More luck than judgement really.
