1st Place Winner
Purple Rain
by fritzkurt

N'xai Pan NP, Kalahari Desert, Botswana

Local rainfall over the salt pan near Bain's Baobab in N'xai Pan NP, Botswana. The special color is caused by the sunset behind me.

Wow, I've never seen anything like this! Amazing capture - I love the colors in the sky, and the dramatic cloud formations - it looks like a terrible storm! The foreground sure looks like it could use some rain.
