Mara sunset
Sunset on the Masai Mara in Kenya is a magical time. The light to the west changes through all shades of yellow, orange and red as the ball of the sun sinks to the horizon. For many animals, it signals the time to take more care; the hunters are arousing from their daytime reverie and thinking about supper; for others, it’s just another day over.
Canon EOS3 with Canon 300mm f2.8 lens using Fuji provia film.
This shot was taken a few minutes before my image Wildebeest Sunset (clickable image)
