[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I have always thought all african villages have a hill at the background, with houses made with straws. Much of this misconception originated from watching 'Lion King' I think. Till I came to Ivory Coast, I never knew the truth. Anyway, after coming here, I was looking for an opportunity to shot a village with a hill at the back, just like in Lion King. Well here it is I guess.

Shot on an extremely overcast day from a speed vehicle. Color, contrast adjusted, blue tint added, cropped. Not much of PP though.

I like this photo and am surprised that you could take such a good photo from a moving vehicle. What you have captured is a village in a beautiful setting. The colors are pleasing.
I think you could crop some more of the sky out.
