I love an African scene like this. Was this a winter day that caused the mist in the distance? Almost looks like morning fog.

It was in the evening Arnold. And indeed in the austral winter, the mist was starting to form

It must be good, because I would have wanted to capture that scene!

Some years ago, I attempted something similar in Kenya - not a patch on yours. I like the clarity, the fading of detail, you seem to have captured detail where it matters. The different layers of colour too and the different elements tree, sunlight, horizon, animals which make a very pleasing composition. I would like to nominate this picture. By writing my humble critique is that sufficient? Best of luck, this appeals to most so far. Arvo
