OUT FROM THE DARKNESS
Lone Male Hippopotamus photographed in low light on the side of the Chobe River, located in the north east region of Botswana.
BEYOND THE RIVER
Bold hippopotamus slowly makes his way across the banks of the Chobe River during the early mornings. Just before the shot was taken, the large male turned and stared at the camera showing off his bold features.
THE GREAT YAWN
A monster Hippopotamus photographed in the heart of the Cobango River located in the Caprivi strip, Namibia. After sailing the river photographing many other Hippo, Elephant and thousands of river birds, this stunning individual exploded out of the calm but dangerous waters.
As if in slow motion, a large body of grey mass bolted straight into the air where its gaping mouth opened in the most remarkable way. While grunts and low vocal screams were made, I got the shot that truly expressed the magnificent oral and dental structure of this lone Hippopotamus.
This black and white photograph truly brings the body to life. With an over exposed background, and a strongly textured subject, this print truly brings out the best of the magnificent Hippopotamus and makes a fantastic wall print.
Black Rhinoceros
Facing the hard environments of North Namibia, this Rhino with a stunning set of horns was photographed rising up to a lone Wildebeest before chasing it over Etosha's Pan.
HORNS OF MAGNIFICENCE
The great horns of the Cape Buffalo photographed in the harsh and dry grasses of Queen Elizabeth National Park, Uganda. As a strong beam of sun shone over the herd and towards this individual, the horns and head become a center piece that aluminates the frame, showing its unique structure.
Two Burchell's Zebras come together as one forming this rather intermit position located in the open plains of Etosha National Park, Namibia. Zebras tend to do this as a form of defence. Each zebra will actually look over each others shoulder to look out for predators while wresting in the open plains under the heat of the day.
THE BOND
A stunning male lion, glairs at a nearby lion walking in the way of his presence. At the moment of his interrogation, I was able to capture a strong head shot, lit up by a direct beam of sunlight. Image taken on the marshy banks of the Chobe River, Botswana.
THE SNARL
LONE GIANT
Large African Bull Elephant walks silently through the open and dry plains of Etosha National Park, Namibia. The photograph was taken to really express the vast space of nothingness that isolates these remarkable animals. With such a shallow depth of field, this image almost suspends the Elephant in mid air.
This suspended Lions head of light truly brings out the power of this stunning predator. Located in the very North of Botswana, this individual was photographed in the low light as he was wresting with his pride. For many days I searched for this individual whom had been on the hunt away from any visible access. I photographed this stunning male when he emerged out of the thickets. As his head moved into the light, I got the shot as his eye made contact with the lens. By darkening the image edges slightly, I was able to suspend the the head to fully express the magnificence of the male.
