Love it, and yes, something about a single tree in a field that makes I wonder, why is it there? :o) I'm glad it was though, beautiful photo, love the vastness of the field with the forbidding clouds being held together by that lonely tree. great shot. TFS

Wonderfully 'simple' image, but extremely well captured. The contrast between the browns of the land and the greys of the sky is very effective.
My only criticism is of the wide white border. I would prefer just to see a larger image.

Wonderful typical African landscape. This is what I still remember from the Angola Central Plains with those common isolated trees in the middle of dry high grass before the fire comes and the cycle of life begin again. Many thanks for bringing me back to my beloved Angola. Well done.

Hello Aysegul,
Wonderful Africa so simple, so beautiful!
Love this lonely tree lost in the middle of nothing just surrounded by the high grass and the dark grey sky.
The different tones of the grass, the shadows, and the light creates a magical atmosphere so typical of this continent.
Cheers.

Hi Aysegul.
Here the sky creates a great atmosphere. But I would prefer an horizontal view (I've seen that you did too in other from your shots).

Anyway, a very attractive composition and moment too.

Hello Aysegul,
such a beautiful quality in your Tanzania series. This one amazes me by its simplicity and by its heaviness.
Simplicity because it's only a tree in the plains. I say only...but it's more than just a tree, it's the tree.I'm sure you get what I mean:D
Heaviness because we can feel the heat and the weight of the clouds on our shoulders.
Exposure is spot on, which must have been hard to achieve. Color balance is good too. I like how the color of the grass. On most picture from this place, it appears more orange...here it's well more of a calm color.
Have a nice day,
Marc
