I have many dreams, mostly ones one can hardly convey in spoken language. IÂ want nature and peace around me, yet IÂ do not want to relinquish digital photography. IÂ have a Nikon D200 with a very basic lens. I had a Canon 30D too, but what a disappointment. BIO I am 55, an IT consultant and tried my hand at diamond digging, computer programming, being a network & computer technician, web designer, amateur photographer, etc. I am a man of the bush and appreciate simple things. IÂ do photography assignments from time to time. I am privileged to live where IÂ do, (map), a rural area in South Africa where I can hear the lions roar just 12 miles (20km) from where I live. I love this site and the artists uploading their work and I don't think any other site offers this varied depth in artistic skills. Piet

Excellent Rhino capture and that bull has some horn. I wouldn't want to get in his way!

I am so thrilled to see you back because I have really missed you. This is just an amazing shot and that is one huge horn. I wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of that if he was angry. No need to comment, your presence is enough for me.

This is so AWESOME! Coolness!

I am so glad to see that this rhino is still alive and well! That horn must be priced very high! The Krugersdorp Nature Reserve lost two of their rhinos in a short time now - killed by pouchers for their horns! Marvelous image of the interaction between the two Piet! Very well captured! (Het jy weer onder die bakkie gele?)

Hi Piet, These are awe inspiring to look at. I can imagine how it must be to be in their presence for awhile.

The first meeting, eh... shouldn't he offer her a glass of something?? Also - That used to be grass? Amazing capture here! Wow. Keep 'em coming, Piet!

Those moments when they are trying to find out friend or foe... those uncertain moments. Isn't that so like the life of humans? Stellar shot, Piet.
