A massive river crossing our guests witnessed in the Mara Triangle recently. Can you spot the hippo? I used a slow shutter speed to try and capture the intensity of the moment.

wonderful nature documentary Morkel. . can't spot the Hippo, cos I cloned it out....   Seriously, the contrast between the  two lines of slower moving wildebeest and those that remain sharp on the bank because they are stuck tell a huge story.    can you see the croc!
Make your life spectacular!

Refreshingly different perspective Morkel!  While I personally feel the head on view gives the most intense feeling, this does give a sense of the amazing scale of the event.  8)
