2016-06-16: WPC Pure (#2)

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.

WPC: Pure

June 14, 2016

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.

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!

20160529_All about the light 1 — A leopard in the Okavango Delta in bright, early morning light. I love the glow of the long grasses framing the leopard.

20160529_All about the light 2 — An Okavango sunset, with hints of light on the marsh grasses.

20160529_All about the light 3 — A lone giraffe traverses through the low, scrubby brush at Phinda Game Reserve.

20160529_All about the light 4 — A pair of springbok near Sossusvlei, Namibia. I think the glow of the sun provides an interesting outline to the pair.

20160529_All about the light 5 — I don’t quite know what it is about this photo, but I really like it.

2016-04-21: Zebras

When going through some photos today, I took notice of the variety of landscapes that I saw zebras in during my last trip. From scrubby desert to the vast wetlands of the Okavango Delta, everywhere they seemed to be thriving. They really are such beautiful animals; I hope you enjoy.

2016-03-11: Feel Good Friday

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!
