Sunrise on the Serengeti - a photo on Flickriver

            The Umbrella Thorn Acacia Tree is an icon of the Serengeti plains.  In the early morning light they reach their twisting limbs out welcoming in the new day.  A favorite food of a lot of the grazing animals, it's wood was also used for the arc of the covenant. A truly multi-purpose tree!  This morning we waited patiently, finding a spot to position to capture the rising sun. Adjusting a few times we were able to capture this moment.
