Poetry Written in Chaos
Wildebeest migration in the vast Masai Mara plains at the Kenya-Tanzania border. Witnessed this crossing and wanted to capture this poetry with my camera. Some make it and some are left behind. Time stands still with confusion and fear mixed in dust and water splashes. What an experience!
