I cannot imagine a scene with more arresting qualities desiring of artistic reproduction than this "Out of Africa", rock pile perch overlooking an African Savanna. Ms. Olson, without wrinkling the brow has channeled Meryl Streep right down to the posture, demeanor and the movie's pre-WWII fashionable attire.

Ms. Olson's obvious ease in occupying, not just space, but a place is uncanny. A place, this place, atop limestone rocks whose broad shoulders once provided foundation for a necessary and beautiful span across The River Green for a century point five, is seemingly timeless. One can almost feel the Westerly breeze gently lifting Box Elder leaves Eastward while the warm breeze rustles warm season grasses fitting for the grandest of Savannas.

And of course, I'm sure this masterpiece is a fitting nominee to CM's Top Ten Photographs of 2019 List.--BJF
