About: Namibia Unique

The beauty of the Namibian landscapes, architecture and its people is without question the most unique and stunning scenery to behold. While many may agree to the incredible natural beauty of Namibia and perhaps recall some of their travels, the next best thing to touring Namibia in person is admiring its epic beauty as captured on camera by photographer Hentie Burger. In his photo book 'Unique Namibia' he has presented his home country in stunning photographic splendour. Dubbed as a praise song for all things uniquely Namibian, Namibia Unique is a retrospective portfolio showcasing 42 years of Hentie Burger's work from 1978 until 2019. The photo book is designed into six distinctive chapters, featuring landscapes and people from across Namibia. Photography in the book is both digital and analogue, with most of them taken by plane. Colour and detail are kept to a minimum to allow other emotions to be evoked.
