Gazelles, antelopes and the like stick together on the plains. Safety in numbers it is called. The more animals there are, the greater the chance of spotting a predator and of not getting killed. When it gets dark, the dangerous time for the prey animals starts. Here we have two Thomson gazelles, a Grant gazelle, a few zebras and a topi on the lookout, which makes a few other zebras relaxed enough to continue grazing for a while.- Masai Mara National Reserven Kenya.
Ingrid Vekemans has always been fascinated by Africa, first going there in 1994. Although this continent and its wildlife remain her main focus, she has also become involved in nature photography in other regions of the world. Wildlife, forest and macro photography are her favourite subjects, but landscape photography also takes her interest.
She organises a variety of photographic workshops and writes articles for photography magazines.
As she loves to share her knowledge and passion about African wildlife, she leads photo safaris in Africa.
