This is part 2 of a 2-part photo essay.
In late November 2008, I embarked upon a 5-day safari of Kruger National Park in South Africa.
My camera was a standard point-and-shoot, Canon Digital IXUS 860 IS (aka PowerShot).
I went on a game drive at night, however aside from a few snakes and an elephant, I don't recall it being too exciting.
A hyena would visit our camp at night, as evidenced by glowing eyes in the darkness, as it patrolled its territory. A chain link fence was all that separated us tourists from its bone-crunching jaws.

These are sweet photos! That safari looks like it was a really good time. The elephant between the two trees is particularly nice. And that red-headed fly is craaaazy looking. Thanks for sharing them! :)
Dave says
Thanks Shawn. I'm still fascinated by the red-headed fly.

Kruger Park Safari says
Very broadly speaking, the Kruger National Park is flat with a few gentle hills, and people tend to classify the bushveld of the Kruger as unvaried and dry, which is rather like saying South Africa is sunny - it conceals an amazingly rich diversity. The Kruger National Park is divided into no fewer than six ecosystems - baobab sandveld, Lebombo knobthorn-marula bushveld, mixed acacia thicket, combretun-silver clusterleaf, woodland on granite, and riverine forest.
