For #stunday. An untouched, uncorrected shot of a gorgeous sunset in Kenya's Maasai Mara region (2022). I was taken by the absolute riot of textures.

Deep orange, yellow, and golden light dominates the horizon, breaking through dark, textured clouds scattered across the upper sky. In the foreground, there is a stark terrain made up of dark, weathered volcanic or basaltic rock formations. A narrow, calm body of water or stream cuts through the center of the rocks, mirroring the golden glow of the sky. A prominent, leafy green tree stands elevated on the left side of the rocky frame, while sparse, dry grasses and low shrubs are scattered across the background hills. In the background, rolling hills or an undulating ridge line silhouetted against the bright evening sky.
