Limited Edition /200
This image of a Black Rhinoceros titled Ghost in the Grass, was captured in the quiet stillness of early morning, as golden light swept across the savannah and tall grasses swayed gently in the breeze.
Partially concealed within the dense grass, the rhino emerges with a quiet, imposing presence — its massive form softened by the warm tones of the landscape. Only its face and hooked lip and horn cut clearly through the layers, giving the impression of something ancient and watchful moving just beneath the surface. The surrounding grass becomes both frame and veil, adding depth and a sense of mystery to the scene.
This shot required careful observation and restraint. The tall grass obscured much of the animal, making composition a constant challenge, while maintaining a respectful distance was essential. The key was waiting for a moment when the rhino aligned naturally within the openings of the grass, allowing its form to be revealed without losing the immersive feel of its environment. Balancing light and shadow across both subject and surroundings added to the complexity.
