At evening time, rhino come down from their grazing places and seek out waterholes to quench their thirst and enjoy a wallow in the cooling mud. It is one of those timeless rituals of the African bush that I never tire of witnessing. The beautiful red light of the setting sun embraced this mother and calf as they walked slowly across the open grass plains, making them glow against the soft, earthy colors of the landscape. In that gentle moment, they seemed wrapped in peace and protection, sharing a quiet bond at the end of the day.
Suddenly a flock of quelae burst up from the grasses, flying across the scene in a flutter of wings. Their movement completed the image, bringing it to life and adding a dynamic energy to the calm procession of the rhino. The combination of warm evening tones, the tenderness of the animals, and the lively swirl of birds created a scene that felt almost painted rather than photographed.
This is more than just a wildlife picture — it is a moment of pure nature captured with heart and patience. A piece like this belongs on a wall where it can be enjoyed every day, reminding any nature lover of the magic of Africa. As home decoration, it adds warmth, elegance, and a touch of the wild, making it a truly special artwork to own and to bring into your living space.
