When the green is real Photo

Photographer’s Note

This shot was taken during the stop over on the Road from Mount Kenya to Lake Nakuru. The shiny green leaves of the tea plantation among the acacia trees, moody sky, just made me stop... such a shame the photo can't express the particular smell of Africa, I was breathing it eagerly... I do miss it now
***
I brought couple of thousands shots from my trip, it is not easy to sort them out, some scenes are silent and beatiful, some are impressive and cruel... actions, colors, stories... So I begin with a landscape, hoping that the beauty of this country is somehow visible on some of my photos.

Awesome picture. As you say, the moody sky and the greenery in the hill is breathtaking. I particularly like the patch of light green that cuts across the picture diagonally. The two black [electric?] lines is intrusive, but I guess there are some things you just have to live with!

TFS and I look forward to more pictures in this series.

Hi, friend!
It is very interesting vacation photo. I like your composition with beautiful nature. Good warm colours and light. Only I think frame is so big.

Hi Irina,

The green is really fantastic here,
I too feel the smell of greenish trees here.
well seen and well captured,
Framing is very well.

I have small comparison of the three colors here.
the middle one seems like a childish green
and front one seems like a teenage green
and the last one is a Matured green ;)

TFS,
Regards,
Imtiyaz.m.s

Ces bandes de vert, avec ce ciel tourmenté, sont superbes et forment un bel ensemble. Très bon cadrage également.
