Sunrise on Safari
Contest Number: 122 Contest Theme: Landscape in Monochrome Lens: 400mm Camera: Pentax 645z Shutter Speed: 1/250s Aperture: F27 
Posted By: TDvN57, 10-08-2016, 10:33 PM

On safari in South Africa, we were on our early morning game viewing drive as we crossed this river bed, just before sunrise, and the fog rising up from the water created a surreal scene. The next morning I tried to recreate the shot, but could not. The conditions were just perfect for this unusual picture.

Nice but clearly not monochromatic

The presence of multiple colours in your image is not consistent with the competition theme.

Wonderful image. It might not qualify for this contest, but it's a great image.

Nice composition...I appreciate the way the mist contributes so much depth to the image.
