These two couldn’t have posed any nicer if I has asked them. A pair of young male waterbuck seen while on a game drive in South Africa. Oh, how I miss that beautiful place!

Muscle memory is already starting to kick in while I am working my way around photoshop. I was really happy to have the chance to play around with a plugin I haven’t been able to use in a long time; Tonality by MacPhun (now called Skylum Software). I know their Luminar product is supposed to have similar options as the old Creative Kit, but I really liked the speed I could fulfill my vision using the Tonality plugin, and today was no different.
Wishing everyone a wonderful week ahead.

Spotlights can add a strange colour cast to images, and rather than tinkering for ages with colour correction, I moved this to black and white to see how it would look, and loved the result.
Wishing everyone a fantastic week!

Despite a long weekend, this image pretty much sums up how I am feeling at the moment.
Wishing everyone a positive week ahead.

I call this one “Toes and Tails”. A few close up images of lions and leopards from my last time out in the bush.
Wishing everyone a safe and healthy week ahead.

A simple giraffe to end the day.

A gentle giant to start the week.

This image is a bit of a continuation of yesterday’s Leopards at night theme.
The one difference here is this was shot under a red spotlight, whereas the images shared yesterday were either with a spotlight without a colour filter, or under natural available light. I’ll be working on some more of the images shot under red light shortly, and share them as a separate post.
I hope you enjoy – happy Monday!

I’m pretty sure this was the facial expression I had when I woke up thinking it was Sunday, but then realized it is in fact Monday. Oops!
Have a great week everyone!

Here are a few more images of the barred owl I spotted in my yard last week. The monochrome treatment shows in another way how camouflaged these birds are, even when perched on an open branch.
