Namibia Bushmen, Namibia, 1997

Photograph by Chris Johns

"Figures in a mirage, Bushmen wearing skins and carrying bows and arrows cross a salt pan in Namibia's Nyae Nyae Conservancy. Use of guns, dogs, and horses is restricted, so they hunt the traditional way. They live in a village built to lure tourists, and most days they wear Western clothes."

—From "Bushmen," February 2001, National Geographic magazine
