    You have managed to keep the dark foreground to just a narrow band and with a well balanced sky.

    We should always view these images large, but this one especially benefits from looking at it in the lightbox. You just don't see the subtlety of the light in the small version. Nice.

    Thank you: Geoff, Bobo, Terri and David.

    Terri I love that early morning light. This was actually shot 2 minutes too late.

    Thank you for the kind comments.

    Yes must be viewed in the light box to be appreciated. Nice subtle colors and a peaceful feeling. Great post to kick off the year, Andre.

    Hi Andre.

    This is a wonderful image that shows off the beauty of your country. I really want to go there.

    Have you considered cropping the top half of the image off. There isn't much of interest up there. All the good colors and shapes are in the bottom half. I realize it would look more like a pano, but a very nice one. My two cents...

    Thank you Ken.

    If ever you have the opportunity, Southern Africa is worth a visit and cheap to do so.

    Cropping the sky, maybe - maybe not.
