Google+ Feature: Derek Evens

Changes in the Google+ algorithm makes it harder and harder to trace posts on our profile down to specific dates, so we decided to change the Google+ blogs to a random feature.

That way - nobody can feel that somebody else was featured in a week where they didn't post, and fairness etc etc.

The random feature will be totally random, and random in it's randomness. It will be purely based on photos shared with the #AFRICANature hashtag that caught our eyes.

This week's featured photo is by +Derek Evens - lovely take on a leopard tortoise drinking water from a puddle in the road in the Kruger National Park.

Facebook Pic of the Week: 31 August to 6 September 2015

Yes, we are starting with our regular features again. Sorry about the lag :)

The theme ran for the week of 31 August to 6 September 2015 on Facebook was #OnTheWing, and it was all about birds in flight. A tricky photographic subject, especially for the little fast birds.

Our pick this week goes to Clint Ralph with this Malachite Kingfisher. You typically need a shutter speed of 1/8000 to capture these in sharp flight, and they are very small. Pretty huh?
