A picture a day.

Wonderful photos, I am enjoying them so much and I'm enjoying the lack of ego on this thread. So Zaminoz, get posting!!!!

Looks like he's been attacked by a T-Rex...

Yes, that might be the explanation for it - although could just be another male lion (too dull, I know!)

[Game Warden]

Have you not heard about Kruger's Trex breeding program?

[africapurohit]

Not sure about another lion - can't see any other scratches or scars (kittykat may have just photographed his good side). It could be a croc or hippo bite from the size and position of that wound and swelling.

On the iMac is use for Photoshop work, viewing with Safari your image looks fine (good tonal range) so it must be a particular system/browser problem. I only mentioned the colour space possibility as I know to my cost that uploading as Adobe RGB and viewing as sRGB does look dull

A leopard that totally caught me by surprise in Lake Nakuru, Kenya.

 

[kittykat23uk]

Gorgeous! My only half decent leopard in tree shot is this one (not great)

This is old...2004...floating through the Okavango Delta.

 

Not why that was so small...but playing through the learning process!

In your album, you need to click on the image to expand it, then right click, copy image url and post that into your post, not the thumbnail URL. Try again. Matt.

A more tender moment in Lake Nakuru, Kenya.

 

[Wild Dogger]

My first for this topic:

 

frican Wild Dogs, South Luangwa Valley, Zambia

[Game Warden]

And what an amazing first addition to this topic mate.

[aussieinafrica]

Why have I not seen this topic before????!!

 

To continue the theme of Wild Dogger - both as a first contribution to this thread and as a photo of a Wild Dog....

 

Finally after countless safaris since 2007, and 1 1/2 years living in Zambia, I had my first Wild Dog sighting in South Luangwa NP in April this year... this is one of my favourite shots...

Great... The Snap/ dominos is coming along nicely with some Outstanding results.

Oh, and congratulations aussieinafrica - that's a big monkey off your back! :-D

[kittykat23uk]

Monkey you say? Back you say? Was it this one perchance?

There should be some sort of warning at the top of the thread for not-yet-gone-to-safari people: "caution, seriously magnificent pictures inside, enter at your own risk"...
