EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, captured by Goran Tomasevic on July 10,2012, a mesmerizing sight unfolds as dusk settles over Lake Baringo in Kenya's Rift Valley. The image showcases the raw beauty of nature as a majestic hippo yawns against the backdrop of the tranquil lake. As the day draws to a close, these magnificent creatures emerge from their aquatic sanctuary and venture onto land to graze. Having spent hours wallowing in the water to stay cool under the scorching sun, they now seek sustenance onshore while preventing their thick hides from drying out. The photograph perfectly encapsulates both serenity and power. The soft hues of twilight cast an ethereal glow upon Lake Baringo's surface while highlighting every detail of the hippo's massive frame. Its wide-open mouth reveals formidable ivory tusks that serve as a reminder of its strength and dominance within its habitat. Goran Tomasevic skillfully captures this fleeting moment in time when wildlife converges with natural beauty. Through his lens, we are transported to Kenya's Rift Valley Lakes, where animals roam freely amidst breathtaking landscapes. This evocative image serves as a testament to our planet's diverse ecosystems and reminds us of our responsibility to protect them for future generations.
