Hello Quentin

I have heard about these rather odd looking trees of Madagaskar but I have never seen one.
You have chosen a great moment for a photo and the result looks great.
Composition is a bit unusual but in a way it works. It is a bit hard to get an impression as to how high these trees are but with the addition of the bird on the branch it adds an element for the viewer to bind to.
Thank you for sharing.

Hi Quentin,
Magnificent trees, so different from the baobabs of West Africa. Beautiful evening colours. In spite of the fading light, giving so little focus of depth, you managed to get it quite right.

Bonsoir quentin,
Impressionnant ces baobabs, pas trop l'habitude.
Une forme bien spécial, l'oiseau est bien placé, il à toute sa place dans ta composition.
Bonne soirée
