Kolmannskuppe is an abandoned town that has been swallowed up by the desert. It is about 15KM from Luderitz in southern Namibia and well worth a trip, if you are in the neighborhood.

Fine photos! I love the different textures and patterns, and the strong contrast.

Thanks! It really is a cool place to visit if difficult to get to. Luckily, I worked in Namibia for a while and was able to make the trip. I also really appreciate that you appreciate B&W- it lends itself to structure and form without the distraction of color.
I also, post/play Gurushots (https://gurushots.com/mark.schlink/photos) and B&W is decidedly less popular there.

Black and white really appeals to me. Of course, it’s all we had when I was growing up, but it was easy to make the switch to colour – the blues of the sky, the greens of the trees and grass – but black and white, with good contrast, will always be my first love 🙂

Impressive photos! To me it seems as if nature is taking back its world. I think it was a beautiful old house and I am happy that it is still preserved!
I am sure it can tell a lot! It sounds like an interesting destination!
Best wishes, Merle
