Tired After A Great Lunch

What a start to our safari adventure. On the first game drive we came across this young male. He just came from his lunch and was really tired as he passed out jeep. I was hoping he would start yawning as he passed the jeep. Yep, and here we go. Take a look closer at his mouth and you can see all the flies around him.

Peaceful Morning

On the morning game drive it was cold and very foggy. As the sun started to come out we came across this beautiful and peaceful scenery. As peaceful as it looks the antilopes are allways aware and looking around for predators.

Where is my breakfast

Our 8 year old son had the great idea to go for cage diving with the great white shark. Of course we couldn't "resist". We drove down to Gaansbaai and did the trip with Marine Dynamics. After a short time the first ones came to the boat and I could got some great shots. But to go into the cage and see them up close is an incredible experience. Another highlight of our trip to South Africa.

Diamond Beach II

Chunks of ice blocks from the glacier are floating through the Glacier Lagoon into the ocean. The ocean will bring them back to the black sand beach. The ice is so crystal clear that it looks like diamonds. That's the reason why this beach is called Diamond Beach.

Where the Waters meet

A phenomenon that happens close to Manaus in Brasil. The Rio Negro and Rio Solimões are meeting to form the Amazon River. The running side by side for around 4 miles without mixing. This is related to their different water speed and temperature. It's very impressive to see and experience.

It Is Not Rio De Janeiro

This is the pattern at the marketplace in Manaus in Brazil. It is the same as you can see at the sidewalks at Copacabana in Rio de Janeiro.

Come and Play with me

Come and play with me - One of the best experience on our trip to Tanzania. We were following the Great Migration. On that day our driver brought us to a waterhole where the migration was passing by. A lioness and her cubs were very relaxed as one of the cubs got bored and started playing with the zebras. He is still to young to hunt by himself, but he starts practicing. He walked up to the zebras very calm and just suddenly he started running and all zebras got scared and run away. The cub tried his same behavior like ten times. It was an unbelievable and unforgettable scenery.
