Facebook Pic of the Week: 24 to 30 November 2014

Our theme on our Facebook Page last week was #AnythingGoes - and we always receive a great variety of images to peruse and share during these open themes.

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.


There's something ethereal and mystical about this image. The Greater Kudu has long been known as the "Grey Ghost of Africa" due to its elusive nature and ability to blend into the bush when it stands absolutely still. This image captures that essence of the antelope perfectly. It was captured by Daryl Dell. You can see more of his work on his Facebook Page.

GooglePlus Pic of the Week: 7 to 13 July 2014

There was one photo that really stood out to us from the +AFRICANature page on Google+...

+Penny Robartes shared this magical photo of the embattled White Rhino, where light and mood come together to tell us something more about this subject. Over 1700 rhinos have been lost in the Kruger National Park alone since 2010, with reports coming thick and fast of Mozambican poaching kingpins living it large in neighbouring towns like Massingir. It seems there is little hope left for rhinos...
