        Impalas at stunning sunset in Tarangire, Tanzania - 3 of 6 You know natures makes an impression when it shuts up 3 adults for several minutes in our universal language of admiration: silence. In this moment all ingredients were there: a spectacular ambiance created by the last rays of the sun hitting the long dry grass, the elegant and beautiful impalas, the silence, the scents. It was a brief moment of perfection where time stood still. I will never forget it, and it is moments like these that inspire and fuel me to spread the beauty and importance of free wildlife.
