Springbok - Sun Runners

A herd of Springbok run towards the setting sun, as photographed in the wilds of Namibia.

This photograph symbolizes both the name of this species (they like to spring, or jump), and the energy that the sun holds. Without the sun, no life will exist.

I love this image as it implies action, color and behavior. This antelope is very tricky to photograph due to its speed. It is always best to anticipate its movement and focus on that spot ... and wait for them to cross that focus spot. And at that spot, push the button.

Freedom, as always, is as beautiful as Mona Lisa's smile.
