National Geographic - March 2009
I'm proud to announce that another one of my images is now featured as a double page spread in the march issue of National Geographic.

The image was shot in Madagascar and shows a farmer on an oxcart, dwarfed by giant baobab trees. You can see the version I posted here last year in the Editor's Pick Gallery.

National Geographic shows a larger version on their website.

Thanks to everyone here for the feedback and inspiration. :toast:

Congrats Marsel, very well deserved. It's probably of lesser importance, but I was also pleasantly surprised to see one of your images on my university homepage this morning!

Congrats, and very well deserved Marsel, your work is very very inspiring, and I do not shoot wildlife like you do, but seeing you work each time, makes me want to sometimes!
