Ripples in the Sand

A station room lies silent and empty, a stark reminder of Europe’s mad rush for diamonds in a desolate corner of the Kalahari desert. Once the mines were exhausted and the diamonds gone, the settlers moved out as suddenly as they appeared, leaving their African workers behind to forge out a new living for themselves. The place has since been taken over by the desert.
