Plains zebras makes excellent photographic subjects, and are regularly encountered in Rietvlei Nature Reserve in Pretoria.

Our end-of-year 2015 holidays were absolutely packed to the brim. Apart from our ten-day visit to the Kruger National Park (read more about our time at Lower Sabie, Olifants and Shingwedzi in December), we also made day trips to five other reserves, and will be sharing photos from those (except Suikerbosrand, which we introduced in a post all of its own) daily through the month of February, in a series we call “a month of monochrome memories”.

Ja-nee die zebra is n mooi monokroom figuur!
n Mens kan nie n slegte foto van n sebra neem nie, dis gewis.
Ha ha, uitgeknip daarvoor.
‘n S&W pajama donkie? Nou waar het ek al een van hulle gesien?? 😉
Seker hier! 😛
This zebra has a bit of personality exuding –
Indeed, he does his own thing and doesn’t need to hang with the crowd 😉
And the head position and stance confirm this independence – ha!
Zebras maak pragtige foto’s!Mooi Dries.
Baie beslis, en baie dankie, Dina!
Mooi soos altyd!
Baie dankie Tina!

Ek dink dis die dat sebras sulke mooi fotos maak!

Cattle egret?
Spot on Noortje! Tomorrow we have a closer-up photo of a cattle egret coming.
Great photo in B&W! The zebra is so bright!
Thanks Christina!
This works so well in B&W. 😄
I still maintain that it is impossible to take a bad photo of a zebra, they’re just so photogenic!
I have to agree with you. 😳
Zebras do make excellent subjects for monochrome. A very nice capture.
Thanks a lot, Tim!
You’re welcome
