Description

Today something serious - hey, I can be serious too you know, LOL.
The above is actually very close to my heart because it was captured while I was alone in the bush, just the fish eagles overhead, their well known African calls sounding miles around. A lone guinea fowl feather snuggly caught in a tuft of grass.
I saw Rhino, Tsessebe, Sable Antelope, Springbuck, Giraffe and many other wild animals. When it was time to go, I picked up the feather, taking some of the bush with me...
Thank you for your very kind comments and visits to my previous somewhat silly upload.

It is just incredibly beautiful! A very lonely soulful feel to it (not sure that makes sense). I love the lighting and the postwork to it! Well done indeed!

Wonderful image, and very touching narrative, Piet. As Danny said, very poetic, and heartwarming. You have a kind soul, sir.

Oh hey... not silly at all! It's a simple yet elegant look. A delicate feather caught in the dry grass is like a butterfly caught in the brambles! Nice vignetting too!
