Taken during a 2 week adventure holiday to Namibia with Exodus Travels, October/November 2006. Image taken with a borrowed Minolta Dynax 5D camera, the first DSLR that I ever used. Originally shot in jpeg format, then recently reprocessed using DxO PhotoLab 4 to try and get the best out of them, as I hadn't really appreciated the possibilities of what I'd taken at the time.
Scanned, not digital. Taken 2002.
The Himba women are actually dressed in a much more traditional way than the men, who leave the villages to find work.
The headpieces of the two women in the foreground show that they are married. The woman in the background has a different headress, which signifies that she is not yet married.
