Timing Zebra's Tails

Synchronized swinging of Zebra tails in Tsavo East National Park


Unique opportunities do not always present themselves when it comes to taking photos of subjects that have already been majorly photographed. The trick is to have some patience in trying to find something creative from within the subject itself. 

Take this trio of Common Zebra for example (pun intended!). There are millions of zebra pictures out there, but there are possibly a hundred or so like the one above where their three tails are synchronized in the same direction. After coming across a herd of 25 zebra, i started looking for that one unique image and decided to single out these three individuals. Keeping a close eye on them, i started monitoring the direction of their tails that were swinging in every odd direction. With my finger on the shutter i just waited until they all happened to flow in one direction and captured this nice pendulum effect of their tails.

The Colobus Monkeys Of Diani Beach

Angolan Black And White Colobus Monkey in Diani Beach Kenya A wildlife lover deciding to spend a few days at the Diani Beach coastline will be in for a special photography treat. Its one of the few places in Kenya where one can sight the Angolan Colobus Monkey at close range. They are easily identifiable by their black face, black fur and long locks of white hair that surrounds the face and also hangs off the shoulders. Being arboreal, they generally prefer to stay among the tree branches and canopy's feeding on leaves, fruits and flowers rather than foraging on the ground.
