my fav is the black horse with the white graffity on the hill

Akira - those are 3 Hartebees antelope. Eland is MUCH bigger and prettier (Eland is the biggest entelope in the world). This shot was taken at sunset. Thank you for the comments

Elsa, thanks for the correction.  I have no sense of size of the entelope family...or of the direction on the southern hemisphere.

Hot series, Elsa - I'd never heard of the Karoo but your excellent images show me that my education is sadly lacking. I agree with Paco about the wonderful sense of space; the wildlife opportunities are a bonus. I hope you have more to show.

golunvolo - The Karoo is about open spaces for sure. I swear they mostly farm rocks in those areas.
Fons - strange as the images are not big at all
Thomas - we have plenty of those here - we call them pajama donkeys
Akira - you should visit
David - there are enough places I have never heard of - so don't feel bad.
There is no education like traveling - I wish I could do more.

Exceptional series Elsa. I like every single one of the photos. Particularly "170617 Karoo 419" - love that sunset shot. I can imagine how harsh was the sun there. However light in your photos are so balanced; kudos!

Thank you for your kind comments Anirban!

Wonderfull series and story.
Makes ones want to go south again, was in Johannesburg in 1982, with visits to the Krüger park.
Many things has changes since then.

[elsa hoffmann]

oh yes a lot has changed 35 years later - but Kruger has a life of it's own - and always worth visiting.
Thank you for your comment Bent.
