 Taken near Elgin in the western cape. I didn't notice that my lens was not completely clean, and was very angry at myself afterwards when I looked at the results. Luckily on one or two shots it is not that noticable.

I got a new lcd screen and it wasn't properly calibrated. The picture was not nearly as dark at home. Now I know :)

Excellent clarity and reflection. Might have preferred this image in landscape format, but superb capture just the same.

Soothing photo. I like the branches in the foreground, but wish there was a little more light.
