Congratulations to kdacharya for winning Feature Thread of the Week with 6 votes - View Previous Winners
I had the pleasure of shooting with Mitesh and others for 3 weeks camping safari. Mitesh and Subrat were the perfect co-travelers. It was probably the most up close and personal wildlife experience that I have had in Africa with the light being amazing as you will see. Most of the pictures are full frame some with minor cropping and some with more cropping. Just like Mitesh I have not been able to go thru all my pictures. Hope you enjoy them.

Great to see you posting.

Holy smoke, KD! These are just amazing. It would take me a week to choose a favorite. I love the way you were able to catch such fleeting moments of behavior -- #4, the Giraffes at the water hole, and #14 are two perfect examples.
I congratulate you on a set of images that exemplify what good Nature/Wildlife Photography is all about.

A truly inspired set that evokes so many emotions! You’ve captured the essence of each animal with a mix of close ups and environmentals. Too many standouts to pick a single favorite, but having been there with you to shoot most of these, I have to say that those Nxai Pan sunsets — especially the one spent in perfect silence watching the elephant herd at the watering hole — were nothing short of magical.
@eyelaser warned me about Africa, and he was absolutely correct. Thanks again for inviting me along, and I can’t wait to go back!
