Default 3 more out of Africa

Hi,

I want to share three more pictures from Africa - each very different from the other. The only common denominator is that they were taken in Africa by me.

The first is of a scorpion fish - one of Africa's poisonous critters. No danger to me or equipment though as it was taken in an aquarium. No glory there but at least some honesty.

The second is taken on a lazy morning on the Kunene river; the border between Namibia and Angola.

And then there is the wine tasting at Vergelegen. Need I say more about that?

Finally, another of Africa*s creatures, although neither indigenous nor dangerous. A simple squirrel in the Company Gardens in Cape Town.

Hope you enjoy the shots.

Great shots. The patterns on the fish are kinda crazy. The last one is so cute.
