Photos of Landscapes and Skies by Yvonne van der Mey

Not only the animals in Africa fill you with wonder and admiration. The African landscapes have a lot of variety, also in the Kruger National Park. There are several eco-zones, and each of them has its own speciality.

The landscape in Africa has the capability of changing within a day or two, and especially at the end of the dry season, when the rains start to fall. I remember leaving Kruger Park in August 2005 with a deeply sad feeling. There was a serious drought and everything was grey and dry. I came back just 4 months later, and couldn't believe my eyes. Never I have seen the Park so green and lush as in December 2005. How about the strength of Nature?

The skies, especially sunrises and sunsets, can be so beautiful in Africa. But not, as I used to believe, every day. Really stunning sightings are pretty rare too. But at the end of each day, we are ready to capture it, if it appears. I am sure you will enjoy these photographs.
