Ghost Towns Under The Sand: Part II "Kolmanskop Namibia"

Ghost Towns under the Sand: Part II "Kolmanskop, Namibia" another Midwest Ghost Town video podcast, and this time we leave the Midwest (and the United States) entirely and cross the Atlantic, and down the skeleton coast on the continent of Africa, to the country of Namibia - home of the old diamond mining Ghost Town of Kolmanskop.


There are some amazing pics used in than video podcast, and all were used in the public domain - with the exception of the footage in Kolmanskop - Some of the attributions weren't required, but I wanted to add the work of

Elina Emeleeva which was found on Pexels - and of course the work of James Kerwin on some of the other pieces (especially floating door) with creative common link below. - and the pics by Avillagomez67, SqueakyMarmot, Damien du Toit, Harald Supfle, Joachim Huber, Skypixels, and Olga Ernst - all listed below. They had terrific shots of the ghost town shared in the video.
