That dot

I know, it bothers me. Not sure what happened. I don't have the skills to edit it out 😐

It marks the chill and still place

Still. I love the photo. Just can’t stop looking at the dot.

Beautiful, ty!

i got rid of it, bothered me to.

download faststone image viewer, you can do simple edits with it. https://www.faststone.org/

This one makes it quite easy to edit, cos the tree is almost black. Pretty lucky, i'd admit.

i've recently worked on improving my composition. next step is going to be editing.

Yeah it’s lens flare most likely

the rule of thirds is strong in this one...i sense a disturbance

It' the notoriously elusive but photobomb-prone Kalahari Tree Dot. The local fauna is pretty whacky.

If you'd like some more redditors to see this beautiful photo, you can also post it to the sibling subreddit, r/desertporn, which is dedicated to such scenes. I'd guess it's eligible for being posted to r/remoteplaces, too

Very nice composition. It’s a lovely image overall. Lucky you to get to see this place on our planet 🌎
