Stunning African sunsets by Paul Goldstein

Wildlife photographer Paul Goldstein has spent years trying to photograph the perfect start and end of a day in the Maasai Mara. This reserve is located in southwestern Kenya and is named after the Maasai tribe — the traditional population of the region — and the Mara River, which divides it. According to Goldstein, the Maasai Mara is well known for its best light for photos, as well as the best places to shoot sunrise and sunset. We suggest you look at a small selection of his works.
