Description
To survive
To thrive
You must take risks
You must face strife
To quench your
Thirst for life.
This is the first in my Africa series, 'Life in the Wild',
paying tribute to the survival of these
Magnificent animals in their natural habitat.
These courageous animals give us the gift
Of their beauty and strength,
And teach us how to live.
Credits:
Photo-art created in Photoshop CS
Using a combo of a lion photo and painting techniques.
Special thanks to Shannon and Jonathan, for the photo and their friendship.
This wonderful and adventurous young couple have been gracious enough to share their African photos with me. They took some amazing shots on their honeymoon to Africa, and the experience of being that close to life and death changed their lives forever. With newfound courage, perspective, and a thirst for life, when they returned to Colorado they quit their jobs and began their own business, which is now very successful. They are doing more than surviving ... they are thriving!
Hope you enjoy.
