close encounters Flight Of The Queens

There are so many special moments I had the fortune of experiencing in

Africa, to name a favourite one would be hard. Witnessing the flight

of termite queens must have been on of the great unexpected ones.

Sitting at the campfire, roasting some meat and listening to the night

calls of Zebras and Hyenas out of nowhere and suddendly thousands of

flying termites danced around my coleman light. Catching my camera and

flash and headlamp I followed the flying path back to the mound. What

a sight indeed. It is so difficult sometimes to catch all that

exitment into an image and at the same time try to tell a whole story.

Well, this is my try for this amazing event in the african bush.
