Camel Thorn Trees at Deadvlei near Sossusvlei during sunset over dunes, Namibia, Africa
Deadvlei is a white clay pan located near the more famous salt pan of Sossusvlei, inside the Namib-Naukluft Park in Namibia. Also written DeadVlei or Dead Vlei, its name means dead marsh (from English dead, and Afrikaans vlei, a lake or marsh in a valley between the dunes).
Dead Vlei has been claimed to be surrounded by the highest sand dunes in the world, the highest reaching 300-400 meters (350m on average, named Big Daddy or Crazy Dune), which rest on a sandstone terrace.
The clay pan was formed after rainfall, when the Tsauchab river flooded, creating temporary shallow pools where the abundance of water allowed camel thorn trees to grow. When the climate changed, drought hit the area, and sand dunes encroached on the pan, which blocked the river from the area

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the mesmerizing beauty of Deadvlei, a white clay pan nestled near Sossusvlei in Namibia, Africa. As the sun sets over the vast dunes, the Camel Thorn Trees stand tall and proud, creating a striking contrast against the golden sand. Deadvlei's name aptly reflects its desolate nature - once a marsh teeming with life, it now stands as an arid testament to changing climates. Surrounded by towering sand dunes that reach staggering heights of 300-400 meters (with Big Daddy or Crazy Dune being the most prominent), this unique location is truly awe-inspiring. The formation of Deadvlei can be traced back to periods of heavy rainfall when the Tsauchab river flooded and created temporary pools. In these favorable conditions, camel thorn trees thrived and flourished. However, as drought plagued the region and sand dunes advanced towards Deadvlei, they eventually cut off access to water sources. Daniel Osterkamp skillfully captured this moment in time where nature's resilience meets its harsh realities. The photograph serves as a reminder of both our planet's incredible landscapes and their vulnerability to change. As you gaze upon this image, let your imagination wander through Namib-Naukluft Park in Namibia - feel the heat radiating from every grain of sand underfoot while marveling at Mother Nature's ability to adapt amidst adversity.
