watercolor paint

it was very hot that day in NgoroNgoro and the result was a photo that looks like a watercolor paint.

Nikon D2Xs, iso 200, Nikkor 300 F/4 @6,7 1/1000sec handheld from a jeep window.

Cut and some lights regulation in PP.

C&C much appreciated.

Luca

Love the effect of the heat in the air... If anything, would like to see more of the subjects, although maybe the "flavours" of each across the base of your image add to the subtlety of it all. Really enjoyed viewing this one :smile:

Very cool Luca. I have tried capturing these kind of conditions a few tims myself and know it is not easy to create something successful. What is missing here for me is a better view of the animals. Just a raised head of a rhino would have completed this image IMO.
