Public Sighting of the Month:

Our Public Sightings Gallery receives dozens of great pictures every month, and we've decided to introduce the "public sighting of the month" to acknowledge the excellent entries. Eric Reisinger, SANParks photographer and photo editor, selects the photo, which is displayed on our home page.

May

Although both of these images are stunning and very different, We were hard pressed to select one winner and decided to select both images as winners for the month: The long exposure (Star Trails), photographed by Theo Odendaal and a nice action shot of an Elephant named "Alexander" having a dust bath by Aat Vuik.
