(always) Learning to See ...

March 06 2010

WEEKEND LINK one more reason that I don’t aspire to be a nature photographer. The click through link takes you to more of these terrific images by Greg du Toit on the Daily mail site.

“Wildlife photographer Greg du Toit was so determined to capture the perfect image of wild lions drinking he sat submerged in their watering hole for three months.

The defiant photographer had endured a year of failed attempts at getting the right picture after building hides and digging trenches near the animals’ drinking spot.

In a final desperate effort, the 32-year-old decided to take the plunge and climb into the murky pool with his camera and ended up contracting several tropical diseases.”

…thats several tropical diseases…..
