One morning in the Masai Mara, we decided to take a hot air balloon ride. The balloon launched just before sunrise and I was hoping for a sunny morning so that I could capture the long shadows of animals from above. Unfortunately, there was no sun. There also weren’t very many animals — at least not the large herds that I was hoping for. I was, however, able to capture a few shots like these impala traveling along one of the well worn migration paths that crisscross the savannah.
Like a blue-green algal bloom. What a show! Very cool scene warmed up by those orangish impalas. Complementary colors working very well here in this highly engaging photo.

You are a true “glass half full man” clutching victory from the jaws of defeat!
