Species: Zebra | Location: Serengeti National Park, Tanzania
This herd of zebras was calmly grazing on the plains of the Serengeti moments before this photo was taken. Our approaching safari vehicle startled these zebras and caused them to run off across the plains.
About The Photographer
I would never call myself a photographer. However, I am an avid traveler, nature and animal lover, and I love capturing the beauty of wildlife in their natural moments. I find observing animals in the wild to be an exhilarating and awe-inspiring experience to the point where I plan my vacations based on where I would have the best chances of spotting wildlife. Part of the exhilaration comes from the challenge of not only spotting creatures that are often very elusive, but capturing them in those exciting moments when they might make momentary eye contact with you or engage in natural behaviors like playing, grooming, hunting, feeding, or evading dangers. Getting out there and trying to capture wildlife with your camera really makes you appreciate the skill and patience it takes to be a professional wildlife photographer.
