2016-08-30: Artistic Impressions

It’s been a busy week as I’ve been getting ready to head off on holiday, and I haven’t been out taking many photos. I have seen loads of wildlife though, including 5 deer at one time, a bear, and the hairy woodpecker family.

Since I have nothing new to share this week, I thought I would post a few more of the photos I call my artistic impressions.

I hope you enjoy them, have a great week!

2016-05-29: All About the Light

It’s been a slow week for photos on my daily walks; and I had planned to spend some time photographing the hummingbirds this weekend, but yesterday slipped away from me, and today is completely miserable.  So, it was into my archive of photos to edit instead.

The following are a pretty random group of photos,the only real common element being lovely light.

I hope you enjoy!

A leopard in the Okavango Delta in bright, early morning light. I love the glow of the long grasses framing the leopard.

An Okavango sunset, with hints of light on the marsh grasses.

A lone giraffe traverses through the low, scrubby brush at Phinda Game Reserve.

A pair of springbok near Sossusvlei, Namibia. I think the glow of the sun provides an interesting outline to the pair.

I don’t quite know what it is about this photo, but I really like it.

The look on this leopard’s face…I think it perfectly matches that of someone who has had enough of the week, and is ready for the weekend!

 

Happy Friday Everyone!

I thought I’d mix it up just a bit, and post a non-elephant photo for my feel good Friday post.  This leopard definitely looks like she has had enough of the week and is ready for the weekend!

Happy Friday everyone!

A big yawn before this leopard set off down the tree… only to thrill us with climbing another, after a brief pause in front of our vehicle. It is unbelievably amazing to be so close to such an amazing animal.

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 🙂

A lioness and her cubs in the surprisingly lush Kalahari desert, most likely heading off to find a place to sleep off the heat of the day.

3 more steps, and you’d say “Leopard, what leopard?” A master of camouflage heading into the tall grasses.

It’s wonderful to have the opportunity to shoot from different vantage points. This cheetah climbed a hill as our vehicle was parked at the base, offering this unique view.
