Many travel to Africa in hopes of seeing the "Big 5" animals of Africa as they have became known, but most come up way short in their quest unless they are extremely dedicated and willing to traverse great expanses of agonizing terrain in hopes of capturing even a fleeting image of one of these amazing animals in the wild.
The elusive Leopard is by far the most difficult of the five to spot, as they stay well camouflaged within the tall grasses and trees that mark their territory. The Black Rhino is as well very skittish of humans, as they have been hunted almost to extinction over the past 50 years, and although their eyesight is poor, their hearing and sense of smell are extremely good.
I was very fortunate to have great guides of which allowed me to locate and photograph each of these animals during my last safari. If you are interested in purchasing prints or novelties of any of these amazing "Big 5" images, I invite you to visit my website at www.naturesrealm.net where you can view them separately along with many other amazing images taken.
