Great shot Jen.
I was expecting another safari shot from you, but when I looked at it, I was thinking: That looks like Ethiopia. Then to find out it was when I read the about. Did you see much of the country? Did you get to any of the historical sites?
All the best,
Ed

Thanks a lot Edward! Have lots of safari shots, like elephants and lions, giraffes and leguans, point is, are they good enough and also interesting?
Your cheetah's are amazing again...I have to go
back soon really:) Ethiopia is one big historical place...its a tough country, dangerous by car, had to find safe places every night, hundreds of people around you when you stop! Its the opposite
from Sudan, which is hot and quiet, no roads, just sand...lost many times even with GPS...loll
Also worked on the way, for SOS-Children Villages as a photographer, these are orphants villages, very sad...learned a lot though! xx Jen

Pictures like this inspire me to get up and travel again. North Africa is just 14km away and Morocco's lights wink at me seductively every night. I'm not working at present and the weather is miserable, so maybe it's time... On the other hand, the levante is howling and the ferries are blocked in port. Only 14km, but 14 of the most inhospitable km of water in the world.
Fabulous colours in this image, and a very pleasing scene. I'd perhaps consider putting the tree a little off-centre (for example by cropping a little off the right), running it through noise reduction (or perhaps not sharpening so much - not sure about this as I don't know what post-processing you did - did you switch off UF sharpening when you uploaded?) and removing that bright white spot in the sky.

Thanks for the compliments and lecture AJ...I wish you could sit next to me and teach..:)
Never been to Morocco, heard its a beautiful place, filled with different colours and smells, but have been to Tunesia though. Would love to join you, taking pics together!
Aren't we lucky to see all this beauty, as I see you also travel around a lot! Jen
