Basic Guidelines: In the strictest sense, nature photography should not include "hand of man elements". Please refrain from images with buildings or human made structures like roads, fences, walls. Pets are not permitted. Captive subjects in zoos, arboretums, or aquariums are permitted, but must be declared, and must focus on the subject, not the captivity. Images with obvious human made elements will likely be deleted from the thread, with an explanation to the photographer. Guidelines are based on PSA rules governing Nature photography which also cover the Nature Forum. Keep your image at/under 1000 pixels on the long axis for in-line viewing. Note that this includes photos hosted off-site at Flicker, Photobucket, your own site, etc

Each member please post no more than just one image to this weekly thread per week. If the information is available, many members appreciate information on your approach to making the image and the names, both common and scientific, of the subject(s). However, while encouraged, these are not required as a component of your contributions.

 

Baby 'gator (American Alligator or Alligator mississippiensis) hiding and hunting among the lily pads, Everglades National Park, Florida, USA. I shared a photo of mama 'gator last week.

You were fortunate to find a window to go there, shortly before the Omicron variant became a serious problem.

Indeed! Glad I went ahead despite some friends' advices to the contrary. When I came home, I threw everything into the washer and wiped my camera equipment thoroughly.

Mary, besides you, I have another friend who went to Botswana a couple of months ago for safari. He has been to Botswana several times before and is familiar with the environment. Personally, I wouldn't have gone to Africa this year because I think it is too risky due to Covid, but I am glad that it worked out for you.
