20th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Hippo Sunset
We were canoeing through the Zambezi River in Zimbabwe late in the afternoon when we spotted a group of submerged Hippos. As the light started to fade the clouds started to reflect some sunset colors. With just a bunch of small heads in the distance the scene was a bit boring until one Hippo rose up and made a big yawn.
