I don't know if it's the same for you, but this weekend the weather is not very good... Rain, still rain and always rain, for the pleasure of snails, slugs... In fact, a weather to stay at home watching a good movie on the television, playing video games, making pastry... or to surf on the web in order to find interesting things and share these discoveries with our family circle or the community of CrystalXP.

Well, today I invite you to visit the magnificent portfolio of Nick Brandt, a talented wildlife photographer , whose his photographs are in black and white.

Take photographs of wild animals, it isn't easy. And to use the black and white photography , an art rather difficult because we should not focus on color but on brightness .

The photographs of Nick Brandt are simply magic and generate many emotions .

You should know that Nick Brandt uses not any telephoto lens to take photographs of these Africa animals, whose many of are endangered, because he prefers to be as close as possible to them.
I will not tell you more about him, I prefer introduce you to some of his sumptuous photos which take us in an Africa as we have never imagined :

OK, compared to Nick Brandt my photos are disastrous, but there is a beginning to everything...
