Taken at 5 am in Serengeti, Tanzania. The best journey and experience of my life.
C&C are welcome

I love those flat top acacia trees.

It'd nice but it would be much better if there weren't so many trees on the horizon, ideally just one.

It's a nice shot with nice colors. I would also try it with a tighter crop as well.

I agree with the tighter crop, however, as there are some good cloud detail I would probably re-composed to include more of the sky and have the trees to the bottom of the frame, possible even in portrait format.

Thanks for sharing the moment, wish I was there!

Pretty colors and the silhouette of the tree just tops it off nicely.
