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 )
