Challenge: Sentinel (Advanced Editing VII)

Aperture: 5.6

 Visited a nearby national park here in East Africa for this challenge. Captured a pretty cool pic of a lone baboon perched on a dead tree that I was intending to submit. We stayed until sunset and I got this and several other magic hour keepers. After editing and reviewing I felt like this image had a stronger impact than the baboon. Hope you enjoy!
