Great shot, the Kilimanjaro is the classic cherry on a stunning cake.
It still has snow on the top, given the global warming and given the fact that I had not seen a picture of the Savannah King for at least 25 years, it didn’t seem so obvious.
On the Alps the perennial snow limit, in 25 years, has risen from exactly 3.400m to about 4.000m a.s.l., between July and August, but it is difficult to define since there are long periods of drought (no rain/no snow) with the Anticyclone of the Sahara that rises up to Central Europe, with the thermal zero altitude up to 5.200m, practically the average one of the Kilimanjaro.
This means, in other words, that for a few weeks a year, day and night, the snow melts even on the Monte Bianco/Mont Blanc at 4810m and 45° lat. North.
Luunch tiiiime!!
Happy 2019, Master!
Fantastisches Safaribild!
Almost the size of the mountains. Almost. :o)
Schön der Vordergrund mit den Giraffen und im Hintergrund der Kilimandscharo!
Naturfotografie vom Feinsten 🙂 .
Stark fotografiert!

This is so sad.
