22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Dance on water's edge

The zebra sprinting across the waterhole, spashling water created this symphony of darkness and light. This seemed like the two zebras were dance=ing across the water's edge. Their silhouettes, stark against the inky blackness, are punctuated by splashes of water. Each movement, each ripple, is a brushstroke on the canvas of night, a testament to the wild beauty of the African night.
