First things first: By no means am I a professional photographer.

but, I love taking pictures — particularly of wildlife and landscapes — so why leave them to languish on my Google Drive?

Open wide. A hippo yawns among his bloat (did you know that’s the term for a group of hippos?!?). Serengeti National Park, Tanzania. © Kevin Harrison 2018

A show of force from the queen of the pride lands … or just waking up from a nap? A lioness bears her teeth as the surrounding herds of impala and antelope remain understandably on guard. Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania. © Kevin Harrison 2018

Hup two three four. Keep it up, two three four. Elephant parade (that’s a Jungle Book reference for those of you who are lost). Tarangire National Park, Tanzania. © Kevin Harrison 2018

Cadillac Ranch. Amarillo, Texas. Up for debate, but this may have been the second coolest — and certainly most photogenic — roadside attraction on our western adventure. Number one? New Mexico’s Blue Hole! © Kevin Harrison 2018

A view from the top. Four Mile Trail up to Glacier Point. Not pictured: The nearly five-hour trek back down, complete with treacherous cliffs and Kate’s close encounter with a black bear determined to befriend Morrison. Yosemite National Park, California. © Kevin Harrison 2018

The dog, the myth, the legend. Morrison, our black labrador and my best friend, was an extraordinarily patient and easygoing travel buddy as we drove across country, up and down the west coast, and back east (though he was NOT a huge fan of the Arizona-California desert).
