Hi everyone.

We were recently lucky enough to travel to Zambia on safari, we spent 3 days near Victoria Falls, Livingstone before traveling to South Luangwa National Park and then on to the Lower Zambezi National Park.

Hope you like ...

the sunset shot reminds me of the lion king... nice series, especially being able
to see the animals at home.... the hippo shot is priceless...

Wonderful shots of a wonderful country, well done.

I especially like the VicFalls shot and the hippo.

These are great. The portrait of the giraffe is priceless, and the zebra sunset is just brilliant.

Terrific series - the sunsets are exotic. Well done in every way.

Very nice series. I like the zebra-in-sunset shot very much, but there are more wall hangers...

Thanks for all the comments guys

I too enjoyed the series. Very well done, especially the zebra one with enough details against the bright sunset. Didn't notice the bird was sitting on the back of the impala.... wonder if the shutter click might have startled it a bit, otherwise could have been a sharper image (correction: it is sharp enough on the head - just the DOF). Thanks for sharing.

The zebras and hippo captures are quite a sight.
Thanks for sharing these.

Beautiful shots, all of them. I really needed more coffee this morning, though - my first reading of the thread title was "Zombie Safari"...

"<moaning> Unnnnnnggghhhh, zeeeeebraaaaa braaaaaains....</moaning>"

Then the actual words made it into my brain...
