[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Cruising through the beautiful landscapes around Arusha made me dream of out of Africa and heroic adventurers while all I really did was enjoying the African colour and air.
The landscapes between the national parks are really breathtaking in their beauty and wideness. The local Masai population looks after the ‘couleur locale’. In their red tinted clothes they dotted the landscapes in a most colour full way.

This photo of some young boys and their cattle was taken while driving. The African driver didn’t necessarily understand when I asked to stop to take a photo; he did slow down with a few kilometres an hour, but never actually stopped the jeep. I didn’t even mind at all; it was just part of the whole African experience.

Hello Sabine. Nice diagnol you make in this composition. I like the dust that is coming up from the marching cattle and also the herders' arms draped over their shepperds staffs. well done.

Hi Sabine,
interesting photo from Arusha region. I'm interested in this region because I'm thinking about trip to this part of Africa in autumn, but I'm not decided until the end. Have You seen a lot of species of birds in February? Nice capture.
Regards,
Andrzej

Une belle invitation au voyage bien mise en valeur par le format panoramique.
Le chien ferme la composition et le troupeau qui en sort nous conduit vers d'autres chemins.
Pour une photo prise "au vol", l'ambiance y est bien rendue.
J'ai cru comprendre que tu repartais, alors bon voyage !

Dag Sabine,

terug een panoramische foto, en eerlijk gezegd, ik hou wel van dat formaat : je kan ook de ganse foto op je scherm zien. Dat kleine zwarte koetje links op de foto heeft moeite om te volgen... Have a nice trip !

groetjes,

Luc.
