Breathe in. Breathe out. That was the message I was repeating in my head, both to myself and to the lioness in front of me. We had sat with this pride since about 30 minutes prior to sunrise as two totally oblivious adolescent elands strolled closer and closer. This was the deciding moment. This was the tension. I pre-focused on the lioness and waited for the antelope to stroll into my viewfinder. Click. This shot means more to me than the entire sequence I captured afterward, in which it ends pretty badly for the eland. I captured this moment in the Kalahari Desert.

An over/under water split level image of beautiful crimson red waratah anemones in a rock pool at low tide. What I really love about over/under photographs is that it gives the underwater element a sense of place. For the viewer it marries the underwater environment with our own familiar world. It links the unknown with the known.

Quiraing, Isle of Skye, April 06, 2013. The Quiraing is probably one of the most photographed locations in Scotland. I spent the whole previous day looking for a different point of view, since almost all pictures of this vista seem to have been taken from the same standpoint. Taken at 5.30 AM after many attempts. The lighted hill on the right is just what I was waiting for to get a much more interesting light.

Blue Footed Boobys are known for their silly mannerisms, including their special dance presented to their mates. While in the Galapagos Islands, I managed to capture the motion of a Booby in action; what a fun looking creature and shot!

The Fennec is a surprisingly easy to domesticate animals, which easily gets used to living with humans. However, it is considered a rare and therefore having them as a pet is illegal in many areas of its range. The Fennec is the soul of the desert, a wild and free soul whose main threat is the illegal trafficking by unscrupulous thugs who do not hesitate in the least to snatch the life from the majestic dunes to change by the cold bars of a cage prison.

Picture of the Day: This Cow is so Emo

THIS COW IS SO EMO

 

Fun & Info @ Keralites.net

Photograph by ADAM STEVENS (Padawan Photographer)
500px | Flickr | Facebook

 

In this lovely portrait/landscape photo by Adam Stevens, we see what I believe is a Highland Cow with its rocking horns and unruly hair. The beautiful surrounding landscape is somewhere near Cornwall, UK.

Highland cattle are a Scottish breed of cattle with long horns and long wavy coats which are coloured black, brindled, red, yellow or dun. The breed was developed in the Scottish Highlands and Western Isles of Scotland and have since been exported to the rest of the world since the early 20th Century. [Source]

While the title was just to be a little silly, I really enjoy this photo. The cow's demeanour is so calm and peaceful and it works perfectly with the surrounding landscape. Be sure to check out more from Adam on 500px and Facebook.
