Wildlife photographer Sarah Skinner set herself a hard task to execute this beautiful backlit photo. Her patience and persistence paid off
Sarah Skinner first travelled to Africa with her husband Andy in 2004, and since then has been obsessed with photographing African wildlife. In more recent years, the couple have specialised in leading photo safaris to Botswana, developing a greater appreciation and understanding of the animals and locations with every visit. It was in July 2016, on returning to one of the couple’s favourite waterholes, that Sarah devised the idea that culminated in this award winning photograph. ‘I have always found jackals to be fascinating subjects,’ she says. ‘When you watch them out in the wild they are such bold creatures and cheeky characters that are always up to something.’
