In less than a month now we’ll be back in Kenya hoping to have a few more encounters like this particular morning in Samburu National Reserve. I was able to use my inverted monopod/remote trigger technique to get the camera on the ground with a relatively wide lens. And of course stay safe from one of the most powerful creatures on earth. Nikon Z8 with Nikkor 24-70mm lens (at 59mm) ISO 800, f/5.6 at 1/640th of a second.
You should try selling this picture to the British tabloids, i bet they’re sick of Kate Middleton pics right now and this would be a refreshing change of pace for their readers

Great capture. Really enjoy waking up to these moments in nature.
Thanks Bill. Can’t wait to get back out there.
Great shot…beautiful landscape with majestic animal.
Thanks Michael. Nothing like early morning on the East African savanna.
Beautiful frame and angle. Looking forward to seeing more from your next trip there!
Thanks Rachel. End of April can’t come soon enough.
Absolutely beautiful, Sean! I look forward to seeing some of the images you take on your next Kenya safari.
Thanks Sue. Always something new to see no matter how many times I go back.
