Our theme on our Facebook Page for the week of 9 to 15 February was #ZebraZ - and we received a great variety of images of Africa's striped horses to peruse and share during this week.

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.

This amazing altercation was photographed by Janet Zinn in the Okavango Delta, Botswana.

We initially intended our #FamilyFun theme to run for a week, and it ended up running for 2 weeks. In this theme, wee asked our community to share interesting moments of wildlife interaction in a family context.

This tussle between two Plains Zebra was captured at a fantastic angle! The photographer is Nobby Clarke and you can see more of his work on his WEBSITE: www.nobbysphotography.co.za

Facebook Pic of the Week: 31 March to 6 April 2014

Last week, we had an open theme again on our Facebook Page - "anything goes" actually.

There were many interesting and beautiful photos shared - as usual - but this one just captured our attention. It was taken by a very talented multi-disciplinary photographer from Durban called Kierran Allen. It shows the dust and drama of a massive river crossing building up on the banks of the Mara river during the annual Great Migration.

You can see more of Kierran's work on his website: www.kierranallen.com
