PotW 16 October 2007

Postby the foto fanatic on Tue Oct 16, 2007 8:56 am

This week there were a couple of excellent posts from marc - his "Just back from Zambia Part 1:

http://www.dslrusers.net/viewtopic.php?t=28922&highlight=

& Part 2:
http://www.dslrusers.net/viewtopic.php?t=28927&highlight=

Both threads contained excellent images from marc's photo-trip, as well as some very interesting information on locations and the photographer-friendliness of some of the places he visited.

For PotW, I have chosen this lovely image from those posts, "Kaingo sunset":

It is a good image and I quite like it. The colour of the sun makes it. Great POTW.
