The first paragraph refers to and describes the image 'South African sunset' at Interactive Arts' website
It is approximately 6pm, you have
just completed your first day on safari in South Africa's Kruger National Park. Everything about the day has been incredible, you saw 3 of the 'Big 5 animals' leopard,
lion and rhino you don't think anything else could capture your attention.... except, you now stand quietly, listening to the distant cries of lions and other wild life.
Everything seems to have become still and silent as you watch the sunset. The sun mesmerizes you as it sinks below the far mountain range and with it the
constantly changing light that surrounds you. It is a moment you cherish after a day of action and adventure allowing you to relax and reflect on the incredible
experience you are living right now.
An image such as 'South African Sunset' by Russell Toyn can take you to this moment in time he experienced in South
Africa. Be amazed that as the light in your room changes from sunrise to sunset so too does the light in this image change, with the setting sun always remaining
luminescent and capturing your attention until the last of the natural light fades. This image 'African Sunset' by Russell Toyn I love to stand in front of for the reasons I
have described above; because it takes me away from my present day for a moment and when I come back it always brings everything back into
perspective.
