Taken in the amazing, abandoned diamond mining town of Kolmanskop, Namibia, this photo is one in a series of lighting studies. With the sand dunes taking over this home, the slats from the missing roof cast striking shadows throughout. These intricate lighting patterns create an intriguing visual effect.

These stunning hand-painted art deco motifs reveal the opulence of this once thriving town.
