Photo of the Day
Hip, Hip, Hippo
Three hippos watch and wait in a lake in Botswana. "They had no interest in me. As long as I kept my distance, didn't disturb their space, I was safe," remembers Your Shot Photographer Hellen Lisa Barbara. "Although I must admit, this encounter was a little too close for comfort -- I am deathly afraid of hippos." This photo was submitted to Your Shot, our photo community on Instagram.
