This image was taken during our safari in Botswana (October 2005). When our guide told us he was on the trail of buffalo, we thought there would only be a few. Instead he led us straight through a herd of hundreds! As the herd moved around us, the air filled with dust, giving the hazy appearance of the background. Shot with my backup camera (Nikon Coolpix 4500) and touched up on my computer.
