About I would like to greet all my old Usefilm friends. I've been away for a photo trip was back for a week, away for another and back - swamped with work and no time for Usefilm! Thanks for everyone who kept sending comments - appreciated!!

I took over 3000 photos on the the Namibia trip - havent even opened more than half of them so forgive me if I dont know where to start. I decided after a while that I will start at the start of my our journey and submit the best and/or the most interesting ones in the same order we as we travelled.

This one is stil in South Africa and in a semi arid region normally having a monotonous "brown" appearance. They had good rains a two months previously changing it in a landscape with yellows, greens browns and blues. Photo uncropped and slightly adjusted the contrast brighness. Used a polarizer to bring out the bright yellows.

Congrats on the POD award, Joggie.
What an amazing view. Things in Texas are VERY brown, due to continued drought.

Okay, now I see your explanation of the colors. Much like my desert, we have had lots of rain and everything is green and blooming in what should be fall. Just wish I had time to go out and take photos.

Excellent landscape and a well deserved award, congratulations! Anxiously awaiting more from your trip.

Best wishes,
Dave

This is a superb landscape, Joggie. It's more special to me because my daughter lives and travels the African East Coast and has recently spent a few months in Namibia, so I can't wait to see those pics. Congratulations on your POTD. Cheers, Ann.

Welcome back! & I can't wait to see your photos from that trip... especially not if these are anything to go by.

Such a rare sight I imagine, seeing this colour in Africa.. & you've caught it so beautifully here. Would never have guessed where this was taken.

I love the different layers of the landscape you've caught.. what a beautiful place.

I can see even just from these first photos you've been on a trip of a lifetime... maybe someday I will have the opportunity to follow in your footsteps.. until then I will sit back & admire the photos you upload.

Keep well & bright
Quix x :)

Lovely colors, great landscape composition. I like the effect of interleaving layers of color. Thanks for posting this spectacular photo!
