Second reaction "There's a conspiracy going on here again all things South African. Especially iminating from Canada
Making hard work.
Third reaction "Despair- I have to choose a new challenge"
Maybe get the second place winner to do that
More seriously, I am honored, and as Arnold rightly said, all are winners. So a congratulations to all the entrants here, a veritable feast for weary eyes. Thank you Joe, and for all the congratulations. CONGRATULATIONS Clou and rjkfam FOR 2ND AND 3RD PLACE. And all the HM's.
FYI, this was taken at a place called Mathekenyane, a huge granite outcrop in the Kruger Park, and one of the few places you are allowed to alight from your vehicle. It gives some wonderful views, and I had thought the storm was going to break out over the area, but instead it moved more north-east and I was able to capture it.
Joe you are right, seems we all love dramatic skies. Here a a few more that did not make the grade.
The same storm
