Got wisdom to pour?
These are all absolutely beautiful but, I really wish the picture “Mother of The Forest” was identified as a country instead of the continent. That’s like saying “Falls in Autumn” was taken in Europe. Africa is not a country. Plus, I would like to travel to wherever “Mother of The Forest” was taken…
I went to the photographer’s website. The forest is in Madagascar. Breathtaking baobab landscape!
The mother of the Forest one was taken in Madagascar, more exactly in Morondava, a city in the eastern of this country. The place is called “Allée des Baobabs” or the Baobabs road. A very nice place.
Sorry, western of Madagascar. ;)
Thank you for the clarification!
Wow beautiful pictures would love to do what you do😍
