  • This is what it should all be about ! You have taken a lovely photo of this impala having its face cleaned of bugs by an oxpecker. Impala is enjoying the moment immensely. Well done.

  • Very symbolic and nicely taken shot. The ant is feeding the many. Your photo is powerfully composed, an image of hopeless distress and the force of self belief…

  • The scenery of Patagonia is of course the homeland for guanacos. You have caught the nice light and given the animals a wonderful environment to graze. This was a personal favourite from the start.

  • This is a great shot and a rare moment to witness. Sadly today one can’t help imagining the safari landrovers all parked up impatiently around these very tolerant beasts.

  • Your fast shutter speed has created this exciting wave of seized water during this hippo’s bath, making the photo more interesting.
