The object that contains the drawings of a Buffalo and the Bushmen, is not an orange...... It is an Ostrich Egg.... I never thought an orange had an oval shape.

Hi,
I have studied your photograph for two days trying to find what would make your image meet the challenge visually without the title attached. So far it has been hard to connect. To me the title is a must with your photograph. I'm sorry if I don't get where you were going with your image without the title.
As far as the image I don't understand the use of an orange but the graphics are very good along with detail in the foreground. The background of the image seems very dark in an artistic way. If it was a mood you were going for then I feel it to be a good choice. The hot spot in front is a bit distracting.
Again I'm sorry for the lack of understanding of your image. I believe that played a part in your score as well. The image is good but is limited on it's attempt to show how Africa is known throughout the world.
Hope you find this critique helpful and keep shooting.

What a fabulous shot, it doesn't deserved to get hammered in the vioting for not being in the slightest way related to the challenge - but it will. In the right challenge, this is worth 7+
Very interesting take on the challenge. Although I don't really see what the photo has to do with the title, and the bright flash on the orange is a little distracting for me.
Is that an orange? A nice idea with the narrative theme, but it seems to be a little too obscure without the title to explain it. The harsh light from the hotspot is annoying too.
