Description
I was caught in this dust storm in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park just before sunset one day - once again doing a game drive on my own. I must admit, it was quite daunting but it was a wonderful photography opportunity.

I hope you were not caught in it. myself along with Jocko500 was caught in one in Utah. it damaged my car quite a bit outstanding capture and I love the animals
Fantastic shot Carin. The Eland make this shot. Great composition too my dear.
BTW On your own is great because there is no one to say "let's go now" or "I have had enough" etc
Ron - you are quite right - that is why I'm looking at buying a 4X4 vehicle. I only need one of the "lighter" cross-over 4X4's - so I can go completely on my own for three weeks without having to worry or report to anyone else! :)
Wow, superb picture with a great atmosphere !!
You are a brave woman, but it pays off!
That must have been scarey. Super pic Xx
Great shot but not something you want to be caught in the open with.
A great catch and lovely pinkish color. Much prettier than the one I saw in Monument Valley. Still, I don't think the animals liked it very much. I did not know you could go off on your own in these parks. Worth looking into.
Fabulous capture, Carin! it would be daunting to see one of these coming up out of nowhere!
A first class shot Carin and really made by the two animals. You were very brave to go out there and face all the elements.
Impressive view!
Argh! I would never dare riding to such places on my own. Hope you can keep in touch with the family by cellphone or something. A wonderful photo indeed.
Superb capture Carin. Must be terrible to experience such a sandstorm. God bless.
Exceptional capture, Carin! Colours and atmosphere are fantastic! :)
A beautiful capture.
I would worry a bit going out all alone; but then I don't know my way around there, do I? I'm sure you know what you're doing. And what a stunning capture you got!
Amazing capture and tense moments..... Aloha
Excellent shot and a very good photo.
very dramatic view in this!
Great capture Carin. I still have my 500mm lens and haven't used it yet. Your dust storms look like our dust storms. The thing around here is, don't get caught driving on the road. It usually results in massive accidents, often with multiple casualties.
Love the Oryx you caught as well, nice shot.. Well done Rob
Not for me to say but you need to be careful out there. Also a fantastic photo!
