  • 'Wild Silhouette'<br />
I simply could not resist photographing this big bull giraffe in silhouette against that gorgeous sunset sky. The scene reminded me of my Wild Scenics logo. A symbolic image choice as the first 'Image of the Month' for 2016 to start off the year well!

  • I simply love dramatic and colorful silhouettes and will not easily forego an opportunity to obtain one, even if it means sacrificing other, more guaranteed, opportunities. This one of a herd of Blue Wildebeest grazing under one of those immensely spectacular colourful Kalahari sunset skies is one of my favorites from the last rainy season, as things just all sort of came together here.

  • This may look like an unfair battle, but believe me, it was a completely innocent one.<br />
<br />
The two rhinos 'fighting' were moving rapidly from right to left and in the original frame of them in this position the small one appearing from the dust is only half in the frame. Seeing it I immediately regretted it was not there entirely. However since I was shooting the action sequence at a high frame rate and panned with the subjects I had captured the 'content' beyond the right frame edge and decided to try and stitch that on; this is the result. Further I cropped the bottom off, which was the (bright) water of a waterhole and OOF grass in the FG, to focus all the attention on the rhinos.<br />
<br />
The image title refers to the uncertain future of this amazing animal species.

  • Normally I would not have been very pleased with a lion that is walking on a man-made track as I would rather photograph it in an all natural environment. However, in this case it did provide me with an opportunity to get the lion silhouetted from top to toe, which in the high grass of the pan would have been impossible to achieve. On top of that the track also serves as a compositional leading line..
