Africam Virtual Wildlife Photography Competition: June Winner!

Posted in: Competitions

Congratulations to this Months Winner!

The Africam Virtual Wildlife Photography Competition is in full swing, and we had some excellent submissions this month! June’s theme, “Foodies,” gave us an inside look into the drinking, eating, and hunting habits of all the incredible wildlife seen on the Africams. We are happy to announce that the winner of June’s Photo Competition is Marijke, who captured this stunning carcal quenching their thirst at Lentorre. 

Why This Photo Stood Out

This striking photo captures a powerful and intimate moment as a caracal crouches low to the ground, pausing for a drink while locking its pale, piercing eyes directly on the camera. The intensity of its gaze creates an immediate and almost electric connection with the viewer. While its sleek, muscular form adds a palpable sense of energy and alertness. The dramatic nighttime lighting isolates the caracal from the softly blurred background, casting it in a spotlight that highlights every detail, especially its long, black-tufted ears that stand out as a defining feature of this elusive feline. Overall, the image conveys both the quiet beauty and raw power of a secretive nocturnal hunter, offering a rare glimpse into the wild with cinematic intensity.
