Nature in a burst of colours (please see it full size)

An unforgettable African landscape, when nature erupted in its all

colours. A late evening, rain in the horizon of the savannah.

Please review in full size, since due to some strange reason, the

colours are not real in the smaller version !

Very nice!  Glad I clicked the large view!

A classic African landscape.  The larger version is definitely better.  I think you could remove a good portion of the bottom black, make this more of a panorama, and perhaps improve the overall look.

Amazing colors and composition! Beautifully done!

Magnificent landscape, greatly composed and captured! The colors are extraordinary indeed!

Nice here but really impressive in large view;you seized the essence of these sudden downpours in the rainy season.Excellent work!

Meilleures salutations-Laurent

A really beautiful result with very nice lighting, Jayan!

Thank you all for very encouraging feedback!

@ Stephen, I really tried cropping it at the bottom, but I felt that the picture is losing the depth and I thought the dim road and the savannah grass added some effect :-P But its good to have a different perspective. Thanks to you.

I think it depends at the resolution of the image. In the small image resolution the foreground is mostly black with no detail. For that image I think I'd prefer a tighter crop that includes less of the foreground. In the larger version, however, the foreground has much more detail and then I prefer the original crop. In any case the two images would be very different, telling a different story.

I agree Christoph

The two pics (cropped and uncropped) will carry entirely different mood and I guess the liking to it is very subjective, I feel...
