This is Africa

A Topi framed sunrise greets another beautiful day in Lamai/Serengeti.
Grassland fires over the previous days tempers the sun into a filtered pink, then orange ball. Capturing the image is the easy part, waiting for the right sunrise/weather cond's and co-operation from your subject is another!

Knock out 10/10 your patience was well rewarded.

This is simplistic but very striking, Marc. I love the tones you captured here.
Wondering if it could use a little more room at the bottom?
Also - this could work well "dead-centre" as well - what do you think?
