Along the Chobe River. This is one of the many reasons you take a camera with you when in the bush.

Nice shot. Now I want to do my trip there more than ever. What filters or PP were used?

No filters. Just a little curves adjustment in Lightroom.

Nominated. Captured at the right moment, beautiful light & creatures. Great play of light and shadows.

It is really magical to see these animals in their natural habitat rather than crammed into small areas in a zoo.

"I nominate this photo" Great capture and timeless, wall hanger for sure.

Thanks for the kind remarks.

It sounded like a paparazzi assault when the dozen or so of us in the river launch caught a glimpse of these critters.
