Strike, steel and Splash 💦
In this intense series of images, a Grey-hooded Gull launches a bold attack on a White-breasted Cormorant, trying to sn**ch its freshly caught fish.

The gull swoops in low, wings spread, causing a massive splash as it disrupts the cormorant mid-meal — a raw, fast-paced moment of competition in the wild.

🦏✨A young rhino calf kicking up dust as it played in the open plains of the Karoo — full of cuteness and curiosity.

Such a special sighting, and without a doubt one of the highlights of our recent trip to this remarkable reserve.

Breathtaking beauty - A Pied Kingfisher glides just above the still waters of the Chobe River, a fish clutched in its beak and the last light of day wrapping everything in gold.

Face-to-face with a Chobe crocodile, locked in a gaze that’s pure instinct and ancient menace. Those amber eyes hold no emotion—just calculation and the quiet patience of a predator that’s survived for millions of years.

This is the river, and he plays by his own rules.

A White-fronted Bee-eater captured in flight with a dragonfly clutched in its beak — fast, focused, and spot-on.

These birds are always on the move, and moments like this happen in the blink of an eye. You just have to be ready.

Power and purpose in every step 🦁
A lioness strides through the open plains of Samara Karoo Reserve, her focus unshakable and her presence undeniable.

There’s something deeply moving about witnessing a predator in her element — wild, free, and utterly in control of her world.

A Pied Kingfisher comes in for landing, ready to join the feast its partner just caught. These striking birds are not only expert fishers but also incredible collaborators — often hunting and sharing meals as a pair.

Meet the Kalahari Boys 🐆✨
These two cheetah brothers, known as the Kalahari Boys, share a playful moment in the magical late light of Samara Karoo Reserve.

Moments like this make every step of tracking wild cheetahs on foot absolutely unforgettable.

I’ll be heading back to Samara later this year to continue following these incredible cats — and hopefully their new cubs. Join me on this unforgettable adventure.

Action-packed moments like this are what make bird photography so thrilling—split seconds of behaviour frozen in time.

🦏 A tender moment in the Karoo 🤍
In the vast, open landscapes of Samara Karoo Reserve, two rhinos pause to share a rare and touching moment of affection. It's a gentle reminder of the deep emotional lives these iconic animals lead — and why their protection is so vital.

Peeking from behind a tree stump in Chobe National Park, this young lion cub reminded us of little Simba—curious, wide-eyed, and ready to explore the world, just like in The Lion King when he went grub-hunting with Timon and Pumbaa.
