Out of Africa







Hi, It's Maggie from Flux Capacitor

Nick Brandt takes truly magical photos. In this series from his 2008 book, he captures the out-of-this-world essence of African animals in a totally beguiling and mesmerizing way. View his fantastic work at his website here. ( I adore the zebras )

Oh lovely to see you here too! Loved the fire and smoke effect enveloping the elephant and the others look like etchings - wonderful work.
