Showcasing the beauty of Mother Nature
This first monochrome Monday of the year is from my amazing gorilla trekking experience. I have some ideas for future posts about the gorillas, so watch this space in the coming weeks!

Happy New Year everyone! I have a few photos from the last two weeks to share; I hope you enjoy 🙂
The most popular post of the year, in terms of views, was of my favourite, elephants 🙂 Good choice everyone!
I chose a pair of adorable baby elephants for my post 2016-05-24: WPC Jubilant. These little ones thrilled us with their antics for quite some time before being rounded up by the adults to head off. The harsh shadows in this image caused me to dismiss it the first time around, but you can still see a playful glint in the eye, which is what this little one was all about.
So there you have it, the end of a short and sweet wrap up of the year. Thank you to everyone for stopping by, sharing your likes and comments, and spending a few moments a couple times a week seeing the world through my eyes. I’m looking forward to 2017; I have a few new post ideas percolating already!
Happy New Year everyone!

The countdown continues… coming in at #2 was my response to the WordPress photo challenge prompt of Pure. A gorgeous, tiny zebra foal and its mother were featured in that post.
Here is another photo of the two of them; I hope you enjoy.

The third most popular post of the year was a response to a topic from Cee’s Fun Foto website, Black and White Close Ups. Of course, I featured my favourite animal, the elephant. 2016-06-04: CBWC-Close Ups
I spent a lot of time in Kenya amongst elephants and managed to get a good number of close up shots that I liked. I hope you enjoy this one as well.

The end of the year is a great time to reflect on the path that has been travelled over the year, and the ones that you hope to travel on in the coming year. 2016 has been an interesting, and really good year. The photos below encompass some of my thoughts about the various paths that I am on.
There are times when the path is clear; you know where you are going and the way is easily defined. If you have to retrace your steps for some reason, it’s easy to get back where you started.
On some days, the path might seem barren and you feel all alone, but you never know what might pop up ahead.
Sometimes others will doubt that you are on a path at all; they will question your direction and your vision. But you know exactly where you are going.
Sometimes you need to create your own path. You can’t see where you are headed, and if you try to turn around, the way is just as obscured. Going on intuition is the only way forward.
Sometimes the only thing to do is take a break, rest, and return to the path later on. This is especially true when you have no idea what you are doing, or where you are going!

Coming in at #4 in my year in review was the post 2016-04-19: WPC Dinnertime. The WordPress photo blog prompt for the week was about mealtimes, and vultures feasting on a carcass fit the bill perfectly.
After my time in Kenya, I have a different take on dinnertime to share. We spotted a lion couple right after leaving camp on an early morning game drive, and the male decided that what was left of the wildebeest carcass was going to be his, and his alone. He dragged the kill a good hundred metres or so before settling down again for a rest. The female followed along behind, but didn’t try to get too close. I’ll have more photos from this sighting to share in the future, but I hope you enjoy this one for now.

Hi everyone! I recently put together this photo slideshow for my photo club Christmas party, and thought I would share it here as well.
The photos are taken over the past three years, and there are several from each of my trips to Africa.
I hope you enjoy, Merry Christmas, and all the best for the coming year.
I managed to capture a few photos of some of the local wildlife this week. I hope you enjoy, and have a great Sunday.
