You are right, Way,
there is such a tranquility in your photo.
The light is tremendous, the air is incredibly clear.
and the composition with all horizontal lines is perfect.
Your photo is of a rare beauty.

Hi Way Ne,
A beautiful shot from the shores of the lake! The wildlife seems unfased and just going about their day. I love the layering...the brown of the buck, the pink of the flamingos and the greyblue of the water and mountains. A great shot with good clarity.
Regards
Wanda

Way to go, Way
There are 3 wow factors in this image.
1. for the impalas, they are very sharp and clear in such a natural position, strolling along the lake and beautifully illuminated by the soft ray of sun.
2. for the flock of pink flamingos cross the frame which look like it would go on forever. Though not as sharp however good enough that we can see each individual birds clearly.
3. for the beautiful landscape of grayish blue hills and sky. The sparkling clear blue lake displays the reflections of the flamingoes and the hills. Again the hills on the background are not as clear and sharp due to the distance but it complements and provides the natural surrounding of the perfectly balanced image with layer of things for the eyes to wander.

Above all that, the colors are nicely saturated, just right not too much. The brightness and contrast is also just right on. What you want me to say about composition. Do you care?

Sometime, a good photograph is not just about how good you are technically, but being at the right place at the right time play a major roll, and I think you got both the technical skill and the luck. Great moment this was for you. Way. And Thanks for taking me there with this photo, almost any way

Hello Way,
What a wonderful image...
The light is just superb and this composition with the line of impalas in front of the flamingos is just great. This succession of lines really gives an impressive depth to the image. Sharpness and quality seem to be impressive and I wish I could this this picture at a real size. You told me recently that you like to see my gallery in the morning, well I can return you tthis compliment and this is the very first picture I am seeing today and it is giving me joy for the rest of the day !
Have a great day too !
Kind regards, Christian
PS - Just wanted to know which camera and lens you were using for this one ?

Hello Way.
A beautiful shot, so crystal clear and sharp. The horizontal layers are superbly composed, and the light on the impala is stunning. The depth of field is good, so we can see the individual flamingo behind. The atmosphere is one of stillness and silence, despite the movements of the animals and birds. This looks to be a really beautiful place, and you have caught these creatures in an amazing composition.
Thanks for your interesting and detailed notes.
Regards,
Andrew

Sabidy Way, I guess that you can be my inspiration as well: You have great photos in your gallery and this one is really good. And also brings lovely memories to my mind. I didn't visit this one, but spent a night in the less known Lake Bogoria and it was one of the most amazing experiences of my life. The shot has excellent quality. The impalas are clear and sharp, standing out beautifully against the smooth water. What I really enjoy is the sucession of horizontal layers, until we discover the mountains in the distance.

Hi Way,
You caught this remarkably peacful scene in extraordinary late day light that bring out very soothing colors and details. The impala are well seen in their gentle strides and the flock of flamingos makes a love pink dividing line between the varying shades of blue.

Greetings Way,

Sensational effort, this composition is remarkable. A very good representation of some of Africa's mammal and bird fauna. It is rare to find places that are so alive with many large wildlife species, but Kenya and Tanzania are certainly such places. The colours here are vivid and lively, the atmosphere is electric and the presentation is of high quality. I can see there are two horned males in this group of impalas, protecting their harem of females and young, a great family group. I shall add you to my favorites to follow your series.

Hello Way

Thank you for visiting my gallery and allowing me know yours, from what I see, it is great and wonderful.

It strikes me this scene, lively and colorful, within states savage us in Africa. The composition is simply magnificent, with good definition and sharpness, excellent contrast and great balance. Thank you for sharing it.

Way,
Fantastic shot, well deserving of it's praise. Perhaps nine layers, bands, cross the frame, bands of land, water, beast, bird, and sky.
Excellent colour and clarity.

You have a quadruple knocout here:

1) the antelopes
2) the flamingoes
3) the low light and the dark bg enhancing the subjects
4) a pretty landscape with a shoreline and water reflection.

Yes, a favourite.

Very nice

This is a real beauty. The lighting is so great here. You composed this photo very well with the impalas in the foreground, flamingos in the background, and the mountains in the distance. The animals in the photo form patterns. Very artistic nature photo.

hi Way,
there's wildlife photography, and then there is The Wildlife Photography, and your work certainly qualifies for capital letters. superb photo, I like a lot the vairous "layers" here and the "cradle of life" feeling it creates. impeccable quality too, and smart use of the mountains in the background and shoreline in the foreground to create a natural frame to the scene. excellent work, my compliments.

with best regards,
Kristine
