Honorable Mention

DESCRIPTION
I was in an over night hide specially designed for observing and photographing wildlife. When one of my first subjects of the night was a lovely white rhinoceros and her calf came for a drink, I was beside myself, hope I would get the camera setting correct as I had never photographed in the dark before. I think I held my breath as I pressed the shutter. And gave a small cry of victory once I realized the image was sharp. That was a very special moment for me. AUTHOR
