The Story behind the Shot:
We asked our driver to leave extra early that morning, so we can find some wildlife to shoot at sunrise. Within minutes, we found a couple of giraffes that posed for us, but they didn't stick around for long. We kept driving, and spotted a herd of wildebeest on the horizon. And though wildebeest are considered kind of boring, we decided to stay with them as the light was gorgeous. The sky started changing colors from dark blue, purple and red, to orange and yellow. As the wildebeest stopped grazing and walked towards the rising sun, an African vulture flew into the scene, and gave the herd an aerial escort.
For me, this is as "Africa" as it gets - Wildebeest, vulture, colorful sunrise and great company! When your morning starts like this, you know it'll be a great day!
