We keep on trawling through our 2015 archives on Facebook...

No surprises that the theme for the week of 21 to 27 September was an open theme, meaning #AnythingGoes!

Elephants gently approaching a calm pool of water - this photo by William Steel deserves a nod this week. You can see more of his photos on his WEBSITE

Facebook Pic of the Week: 29 June to 5 July 2015

We ran an open theme again for this particular week - so indeed #AnythingGoes was the hashtag.

We received some wonderful images, like we do every week, which makes selecting one to feature a tough task.

Dayne Braine shared this wonderful photo of a Greater Flamingo wading through an Etosha waterhole, with some African Elephants in the background. Check out his FACEBOOK PAGE for more of his work!

Facebook Pic of the Week: 11 to 17 May 2015

Well now, our theme for the week of 11 to 17 May on Facebook was all about Mother's in nature - it was the week in which we celebrated Mother's Day all over the world, so a fitting one indeed. #MommyMagic saw us receiving many adorable and "awww" moment photographs from our community.

This photo by Marlon du Toit stood out to us - the symmetry, soft colours and great composition made it a firm choice to feature this week. You can see more of his work on his WEBSITE.

GooglePlus Pic of the Week: 8 to 14 September 2014

The AFRICANature brand is about high quality imagery. You don't have to be a professional photographer to produce high quality imagery, but you need to know your equipment, know your subject and know how to process your photos properly.

We are very happy with the standard of images being shared with the theme - but that also makes our choice as curators even harder. This week we chose a lovely infrared photo of a herd of elephants, taken by +Marie Knock. You can see more of her work on her website: www.tarajiblue.com

Remember to tag your quality African wildlife and landscape photos on G+ with the hashtag #AFRICANature and also tag the +AFRICANature page so we can consider your work for resharing and a possible feature here on the blog.
