Rietje Bulthuis Profile picture Broken branches from the tube tree in the desert, at sunrise in the Kalahari Desert, Namibia.
The Quiver Tree or Tubular Tree is one of the most interesting and characteristic plants of the very hot and dry parts of Namibia and the northwestern part of the cap province in South Africa. The botanical name is Kokerboom. Dichotoma refers to the forked branches of the plant. The plant is called a Socket Tree, because some Bushman and Hottentot tribes used the tough, peelable bark and branches to make tubes for the arrows.
The Kalahari is a semi-desert in southern Africa. It is an area of approximately 900,000 km². Although it is generally referred to as a desert, it is not, because there is considerably more rain than in a real desert. The Kalahari is a very varied area that includes large stretches of grassy steppe and savannah as well as sand desert. The area covers most of Botswana and eastern Namibia and parts of Zimbabwe, South Africa and Angola. The grassy areas are characterised by long stiff grass, prickly bushes and acacias. There are lions, hyenas, different kinds of antelopes, meerkats and baboons.

I like to take pictures of nature and landscapes. Travelling is my passion. I also like to occasionally apply in photoshop effects, or create new designs, thus creating digital art. Also art and culture in other countries have my interest. I created many albums in my shop: panoramas, landscapes, animals, people, flowers, various countries, buddhas and more. Besides photography I am involved in sculpting and painting. My other work can be seen on https://www.rietjebulthuis.nl
