Showcasing the beauty of Mother Nature
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!
It’s Friday again, and that can only mean that it’s time for an elephant photo!
Have a great weekend 🙂
This week we have had some truly awful weather (I heard it referred to as Junuary, and that was pretty appropriate since the high one day was 6C with 60+mm of rain) and as such, I haven’t been out with the camera much. So, I thought I would share a few of the photos I call my ‘Artistic Impressions”. Generally, I like to keep colour photos as true to life as I can remember, and take my liberties with monochrome edits to highlights the subject to it’s best advantage. Sometimes though, a photo seems to be asking for more, and I take it (for me) to an over the top place. I’ve been having some fun recently doing more of these artistic edits, and thought I would share a few today, since I don’t have anything else.
Have a great week everyone!
These lions were amazing to spend time with while in the Sabi Sands in South Africa. Over the course of a few days we spent time with them on two kudo kills, watched as the female chose which of her suitors she preferred (the one pictured here, of course) and even saw them mating several times. Animal interaction in the bush is always exciting, and I learned new things which each game drive.
Thinking about spending time in the bush, and looking through my pictures, certainly helps to put me in a great mood 🙂
Here’s to a great weekend ahead!
Enjoy your Friday! 🙂
I came across this photo and it fit so beautifully with the previous post I did for the topic pure, that I had to share this one as well.
It was wonderful watching the group that these two zebras were a part of; there were several youngsters in the group, but this little one was by far the tiniest. She spent lots of time nuzzling close to mom, and when she curled up for a rest, Mom kept a watchful eye and was never far away.
I find it so peaceful to spend time bearing witness to these animal’s lives, if only for a few moments. That’s my take on this week’s topic: Pure.
I finally caught Cee’s Black and White Challenge topic with time to participate; this week’s them is “Close Ups”. And me being me, I thought what better subject for a close-up than elephants!
I hope you enjoy, have a great day!
Any day is a good day for posting an elephant photo 🙂 Here’s one from the time we got stuck in the river we spent so long watching the ellies.
Happy Friday Everyone!
