Top 16 Africa Through My Lens Images so Far

Africa lives in the baritone rumble of a lion’s roar, in the delicate movement of a dung beetle, and the regal colours of its sunsets. There is much to experience in this untouched wilderness, from the stillness encountered in the fresh air to the exhilaration that comes with seeing wildlife up close.

We have received bountiful proof of her beauty through the Africa Through My Lens entries, and we showcase our favourite images of the week  on our Instagram channel. Here are a few for your viewing pleasure…
