It was difficult to tell where the seals finished and the polished rocks and sand started. 

Namibia 2001
Africa is so diverse and full of things you never expect. Seals at Cape Cross in Namibia, thousands all beached up sun bathing. And two days before we had been watching elephants in almost desert conditions.

These are the tracks of the Lion I came face to face with in camp in the night when I answered a call of nature. We followed his tracks for 30km before finally catching up with him.
