Baobabs at Sunset in Madagascar

Casting long shadows, Grandidier's baobab trees along the Avenue of the Baobabs, obscure the light as the sun sets in a smoky haze.

 

On the southern west coast of Madagascar near the town of Morondava.

 

It was the end of a long, hot day of driving in Madagascar when we stopped at the Avenue of the Baobabs just before sunset. This is a special time here and there were lots of people. The trees were incredible and made even more majestic by the long shadows cast by the setting sun. It was a quiet, serene, awe inspiring experience. Each time we look at this photo, it takes us back to that moment in Madagascar.
