Sort:  

nature....
its a cycle of life and death....
we are just its passengers....

it's strange how some things can be brutal and beautiful at the same time

Eat up!

Mixture of blood and water flow looks like blood of many species. We can compare this picture to huge massacre on the planet...

I guess that's the circle of life ....

Yes it is natural selection.

That's so raw and still it's so beautiful... Great shot!

Great post as always,keep your great work :)

looks scary. The man took the helicopter to snap this that's awesome.
