African Sunrise in Etosha National Park; Namibia

African Sunrise in Etosha National Park, Namibia

Excellent use of color and shadow creating an intensly interesting scene that I find drawing my attention to repeatedly. I enjoy viewing this photo very much.

Nice central composition, good colors. Horizon is not leveled and foreground does nothing for the composition. Both can be fixed easily by cropping.

Image would've been stronger if shot few minutes earlier with the full sun directly behind the tree. At least half the sun. Or few minutes later when the sun is behind horizon, would also enhance colors.

Beautiful photo. I would have given it an 8 or maybe a 9, except I feel the top corners of the photo are too dark.

I'm new to this site. I like this photo and wish to ask permission to use it. How do I contact the photographer? My page is http://jewel.morgan.edu/~sawicki

 

Thanks.
