Review
There's little doubt Martin's photos are amongst the finest photos for this group of plants available on flickr.com, and certainly they are some of the best I've seen anywhere. Simple, elegant and beautiful he manages to brings out the magnificent in these already stunning flowers. I look forward to further additions by this photographer.

Namaqualand the Beautiful,
By Buck Hemenway (Riverside, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Namaqualand and the Richtersveld - Nature's Spectacular Canvas - Volume 1 (Hardcover)
The author's final line "go where the air is clean and the streets have no names..." perfectly describes this fantastic part of our world and his exquisite pictorial review of the flora of Namaqualand. Tucked in the Northwest corner of South Africa, this semi-desert region is home to a dazzling array of plant life. Mr. Heigan's book brings the spring blooming season to life. The quality of the photography is excellent and his descriptions and local knowledge anecdotes are interesting and thought provoking. As a traveler to this far away place, I highly recommend this invitation for more.
