Great capture of a spectacular sunset, Paul. the colours are surreal, and I like the dominance of the big sky over the silhouettes. A well-composed and striking photo. Regards,
Ryno

Very nice colors! It reminds me about a volcano eruption!

Fabulous work, and I agree that you're very lucky indeed (as I am in Australia)! How I would that I'd had my digital camera when I visited Malawi.

So many thick layers of cloud, such a range of colours - it's really well composed, well done!

Hi Paul, welcome to TE. Great African morning. What a great doorsteps with such a beautiful view. Looking forward to more your pics of South Africa. Cheers, Michael

Man ... what an amazing sunrise ... and to think it is just from your doorstep ... lucky you! Good use of the trees as silhouette to break the horizon and great colors. Excellent photo!

When you wake up to a morning like this, it's indeed good to be in Africa =) Beautifully rugged clouds with marvelous colours! What can I say but to sigh in wonder...

This is in kind unique!!!!!!!! I do not know how describe it!!!!! Lack words me!!!!! This foto is my nr.1

Wow...

Now that's a sunrise! My mom talks often of the sunsets we used to see living in Swaziland in the late 70's. I was too young to remember myself- but would love to make a trip back. Especially for a photo safari of sorts!

Nice work Paul, keep it up!
