One of my favourites from my years in Tanzania. This elephant was photographed at Tarangire Safari Lodge - perhaps the most quintessential place in East Africa, run by our friends Jon and Annette Simonson.

Terry, where is the catch light in the eye? Just kidding. Excellent capture.

I took this photo of a wild Mustang mare and her foal on that dirt road heading to Toroweap area of the Grand Canyon. I was just driving along when I saw a small band of 20 horses. I had to stop and take photos.

There was a picture vaguely similar to this on despair.com (great site), with the caption "The journey of a thousand miles often ends very, very badly".

I love this one and the square crop is perfect.

Everything right about this one Terry.
An absolute winner!

Very nice scene, well done. I like how the peaceful the mustangs look. Nice background also.

This is Betsy, our three legged deer. She hops around pretty good and is fast when startled.

I would like to ask for some assistance from the birders if they would be so kind. While I was out trying out the new Nikon 80-400 AFS lens on the local pelican population I ran across a feathered critter I have never seen in my over 50 years in these parts. I have never seen a diving bird go after catch and eat a blue crab. Could anyone supply a name?
Thanks Larry
