[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Kilimanjaro as seen from Amboseli nature reserve. I spent a week around this mountain without seeing its top. It was all the time covered by clouds. Then on my last day just when we were leaving before midday the clouds dispersed and I managed to take this photo with my second camera from a moving car. For some reason seeing Kilimanjaro had been my dream since my childhood.

Nice composition, well done technicaly. I can only suggest to use a bit more thin framing line.

Pekka,
Absolutely beautiful image from the Amboseli, I wish I had more time when I was there to visit this park as well. The Landscape is perfect with a few zebras to provide the essence of the wildlife within the park. Great sharpness and clarity and beautiful color and light. the low cloud are just a plus for this image. Thanks

Hello Pekka
What a brilliant photo of Kilimanjaro with the melting snow peeping through the clouds and the zebras in the foreground. I walked to the top 2 months before you took this photo but never went to Amboseli and so never saw the animals and Kili in one scene. TFS, Marlene
