Showcasing the beauty of Mother Nature

A little cheetah hokey pokey for this week’s WPC theme – Dance
TGIF!
For today’s feel good Friday post, I thought I’d share a trio of big cats.
I hope you enjoy, and have a wonderful day

I came across the hashtag #FeelGoodFriday on a photo this morning, and not only was it a beautiful image that made me smile, but it inspired me to pick a photo pf my own as a feel good Friday photo.
This is one I have wanted to edit for a while, and doing so has made me happy. The light in the desert of Namibia is so magical, I hope I captured a bit of that.
Enjoy, and TGIF!
If you’re in Southern Africa in the autumn (April/May) you’ll be there during the impala rut. And believe me, you’ll find yourself uttering the same phrase I did repeatedly “What on earth was that noise?”
I still don’t understand how a creature like this, can make a sound like that. To hear it for yourself, check out sound number two on this website.
Both in Botswana and South Africa, we heard a lot of noise and commotion, and saw a few different groups of bachelors going crazy, running and jumping and locking horns.
Unfortunately, the guys kind of lose their minds during this time, and throw their normal caution and vigilance to the wind. The result…
A warm sunny day, brilliant blue skies, lush green grasses and trees. And an elephant. Of course there’s an elephant.
My take on nature working in perfect, beautiful harmony. And a reminder of a wonderfully happy day.
Have a great day!
I decided to combine my usual Monochrome Monday with a WPC topic of the week: Muse. What topic do I return to time and time again? What subject inspires me? What am I ALWAYS excited to photograph?
If you’ve read this blog for more than a week, you’ll know the answer, it’s easy:
Elephants
I’d happily spend a day, a week, a lifetime in the presence of elephants. Photographing them of course, but more importantly just being in their presence, enjoying their rumbles and trumpeting, feeling the vibrations of their communications at levels we can’t hear, revealing in their beautiful, peaceful nature.
Here are a couple photos that popped out at me this time for editing and posting.
Enjoy, and have a wonderful week.
Note – this isn’t the current WPC topic of the week… not even close. But when I was looking for the current one, this spoke one spoke to me. Onto Harmony later in the week.
A few photos of my favourites, the elephants, on this World Wildlife Day.
