[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
we were in the Northern part of the Serengetti National Park where the Tse Tse flies were a real problem (sleeping sickness), so the guide suggested that we made an early start because there were less flies about during the cool part of the day. This allowed me to cath the photo of the sunrise.

Hi Sitthivet
This is very beautiful, specially the tree in front of the sun works well.
Nice work

Hello Sitthivet,
I like very much this composition: the tree shadow containing the sun is something magic.
Beautiful colours!

Oh Africa...
I am pretty sure a photo like this is a classic must-have for everyone who went there. And it's very beautiful. Well done.

Pretty silhuete of the tree and this colorful sunrise.

Nice job!

Allô Sitthivet!
Belle prise de vue et magnifique coucher de soleil.
J'aime beaucoup cet arbre que j'ai vu dans d'autres pays et qu'on ne retrouve pas chez-nous.
Félicitations!... et merci de partager,
Emilius

Hi Sitthivet,
That's a great capture!
It's as beautiful as my souvenirs from sunset hours I could spend in Serengeti Park during my travel to Tanzania.
Emma

Wow! This is a spectacular sunrise shot! I love the colors you captured, the framing with the tree and the simplicity of the shot :)

This is a classic shot of the Serengetti. Well seen and nicely composed using the Golden Median Rule.
Well done Sitthivet.
