Rush Hour
by Mitchell Krog
Thousands of wildebeest cross the Mara river in one of the greatest shows on Earth. Chaos, fear, panic and adrenaline are the call of the moment as the animals do their utmost to cross safely to the other side without being trampled, drowned or eaten. What a combination of emotions for both beast and photographers.
Equipment: Nikon D3x, Nikkor 200-400mm Lens

That is a super shot. The black and white brings us back to simpler times. I know and can also feel that this show has been done many times before by their ansestors and viewed by our ansestors. That is what connects us all. Every day is different but nothing changes.
