South Africa 2012

The "Lions and Leopards of MalaMala" tour with Wild4 African Photo Safaris. Amazing doesn't begin to describe this photo safari! I highly recommend Stu Porter and Wild4! The majority of sales proceeds from this gallery will go to the Sheldrick Wildlife Trust

Crossing

We sat in our vehicle surrounded by five family groups of Elephants (numbering about 125 in all). As the sun got lower in the sky, they began to cross the river and disappear into the bush. This picture was National Geographic's Photo of the Day for September 8, 2012.
