Let's see your African sunrises / sunsets...

@@Soukous that karibia shot looks like a scene straight out of Waterworld.

 

do you mean the awful Kevin Costner film? @@Kitsafari

@@Soukous it was a terrible movie. A dud.

 

It's jus that your picture made me think that will be what a flooded abandoned world will look like. It's hauntingly beautiful.

Late afternoon so not quite sunset but I do like this one of Okavango Delta

 

More "on topic" is this sunset over Lake Nzerakera in the Selous

 

At the other end of the day, Giraffes at Dawn in the Maasai Mara

Finally, Sunset & Sunrise in Ruaha

Four Rivers, Okavango. One of the most beautiful spots I've ever seen.

[What's The Point]

We see a lot of sunrises, as we're always ready to go before the sun is up ! Africa is no place to be having late mornings in bed.

These are a couple of my favourites. (All handheld)

[What's The Point]

@@Game Warden - That first one was one of the most insane things I have ever seen. I was expecting a choir of angels to appear and start sing at any second !

Dreaming of Africa from my window, new years morning. Very Africa like.

 

I know, we are in the bush of Virginia, so this is a " Dreaming Africa Sunrise"

Usually the oystermen are sailing by on the way to work....love it.

The sunset was very nice but what was even more spectacular was the full moon rising at the same time

You are way kind; but yes it is our little world of sunrises most every day. Very addicting as well.

 

You are most welcome as are any ST'rs if anytime on the east coast - in Virginia on Chesapeake Bay, not too terribly far from Washington DC.

 

We love company esp. if they talk Africa!
