Hennie van Heerden, The Netherlands. Hennie sees photography as a hobby, yet her work reflects so much more in so many ways! Her pictures have it all: emotions, drama, action…a marvel for the eyes! Although she doesn’t focus her attention entirely on African wildlife, her portrayals of the old continent are absolutely exquisite! Very hard to pick a winner, yet I must admit one of her impala scenes is extra special. Enjoy!
