May and June

In the last weeks I did not have a lot of time to blog. But over the last few days I worked on a lot of images (sorting/filing/deleting/editing a few thousand) and I thought you might like to see some of my favorite shots from May and June 2017 which I took at Thanda Safari.

The Big Five, Cheetah, Hyena and more …

Enjoy them!

  1. Beautiful! I love your pictures because of the simplistic style and closeness it brings. The pictures are both professional but yet strangely relatable. I especially liked the rhinoceros with its young, so sweet! Great work, I always enjoy seeing new posts in your site.
