Namibia 2025 – Workshop Itinerary and Details

We will begin our adventure with an early departure from Windhoek on May 12.  Over the next 13 days we will explore the magic of this amazing, unique country.  Namibia is an undiscovered photographer’s paradise, with the iconic sand dunes of the Sesriem, Sossusvlei and Deadvlei, the Skeleton Coast and pink flamingoes, whales and penguins in Walvis Bay, and the deserted, ghost town of Kolmanskop where the desert is slowly reclaiming the town by filling the abandoned homes and mining town buildings with sand.  We will also make time for guided game drives and living desert nature walks to capture photos of the wildlife of Namibia in both the Kalahari and the NamibRand deserts.

May is the beginning of Winter in Namibia and you can expect ideal weather with mild, dry conditions during our workshop.  Morning hours will require a light jacket, at mid-day you can expect to wear short sleeves, and as the sun begins to set you find yourself reaching for your light jacket again.  

This workshop will be led by one of BPSOP’s finest instructors, Scott Shields.  Scott is completely enamored with Africa and is very much looking forward to returning to Namibia and leading this workshop.  Here is a link to his bio on our website, where you can also find links to many of his images of Namibia and other locations:
