Description

This photo features a 900 year old tree standing in the Dooie vlei 'dead march' in Namibia.
An absolutely surreal environment. The air is so dry it sucks the moisture from your mouth, the same climate has preserved these trees for hundreds of  years.

You seem to have captured a sort of mirage; line of trees is reflected.
Is that a gigantic sand dune filling the background?
