The story behind the image

Our second night at the Etosha National Park in Namibia began with this beautiful sight at the Okaukuejo waterhole. The surface of the water seemed to have been dipped into the warm orange glow of the setting sun, reflecting a few clouds in the sky. Several birds stood near the water, creating a wonderful silhouette.

Awesome.
