Eastern Shore of Lake Nakuru

Flying over the park with a student as a pilot was certainly an experience to be remembered, especially for someone like me who does not like flying! The landscapes from above gave a completely different dimension to the park. This shot shows the shore of Lake Nakuru and a few zebras by the water. I like the contrast of colour between the water and the grass. Taking pictures through the window was a challenge as I had to get the camera flat against the window to avoid distortion of the picture.
