Namibia, a Magical Place by Rodger Lee Having visited Namibia some years ago and reading articles in the magazine I would like to reflect my thoughts about the country and share some of my images. The peace and quiet is wonderful with only the occasional roar of the burner replenishing the hot air. Flying over the sand dunes in a hot air balloon was a wonderful experience I will never forget the scenery is absolutely stunning and on the day of our flight the breeze was in the right direction. The wildlife is also wonderful and it is incredible how animals survive in the harsh conditions. Other flights were not so lucky ending up going in the opposite direction. I have included a small selection of pictures of the animals and birds encountered during my visit to Namibia, the variety is extensive, from leopard and zebra to Lion, giraffe and agama, and even the weaver birds.
