Hippos at Golden Hour - African Wildlife Photography Print
The Story behind the photo
In pursuit of captivating wildlife moments, I ventured to the Kruger National Park in South Africa, seeking to capture the raw beauty of the savanna.
Under the strong African sun, tiredness weighed heavy as we approached the hottest time of the day, yet I persisted as I crisscrossed the savanna. The middle of the day proved to be challenging, with most animals seeking refuge from the scorching sun, and our hours of driving accumulated under the heat.
Arriving at a serene lake, without any other human presence, I became witness to an extraordinary event – two hippos engaged in a fierce battle. Unusual for this time, as hippos typically laze about during the day, surfacing only briefly to breathe.
The urgency of the moment gripped me; I had to capture this swiftly, unsure of how long the spectacle would last. However, just as I arrived, a fight settled, and it seemed I had missed the climax of their clash as they cooled off in the water.
Yet, the story took a turn. As I grabbed my camera, the hippos, seemingly recharged, resumed their fight. Right before my eyes and just in front of my vehicle, they clashed in the water, creating a rare and breathtaking scene.
The result? A profound sense of gratitude enveloped me as I captured this unique shot – two hippos engaged in a fierce daytime battle. The photograph stands as a testament to the unexpected wonders that the savanna has to offer when least expected.
