Description: A light fog at sunrise as a few Eland and a Safari vehicle pass by.
Story from behind the lens: Camp we saw the fog and set up to capture sunrise when a safari vehicle and some Eland wandered by making for a great sunrise foreground. Key to an awesome sunrise or sunset photo is having a distinctive foreground or an identifiable shape which makes a good silhouette and shows some sense of place. It could be as simple as a tree or a safari vehicle an animal or better yet all three. Remember the sun doesn't even always need to be in the frame and unique atmospheric conditions such as clouds, fog, dust or smoke can make a killer shot.
