The Beautiful Okavango Delta!

My Photo scholarship 2010 entry

BOTSWANA | Monday, 23 August 2010 | Views [410]

This picture was taken to convey the beautiful movement of the Pula against the beautiful backdrop of the sunset over the Okavango. I love that the Pulas guiding stick cuts right through the sun.

In this picture i was trying to capture the motion of the Mokoro and and its Pula along the water. I love that the sun was almost overhead and that its reflection has added something to the appearance of the water around the Mokoro.

This fantastic sunset over the Okavango delta is so beautifully rich in colour. I love the ripples in the water and yet the water appears so smooth. I love that everything on the horizon is black against the orange background and that itself is reflected in the water. I tried also to include a lily and lily pad in the forefront and managed to get that and a few others which lead the eye along the water.
