This book is the second of a series that shows the pictures from Africa of Alessandra Santos and Cassio Lopes in the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2010 competition. This collection is a selection of photographs taken in our trips to Kenya, Namibia and Botswana in 2008, and Rwanda and Kenya in 2009. The pictures have entered the competition in several categories such as Animal Portraits, Behavior Mammal, Creative Visions of Nature, Nature in Black and White, Wild Places, and others. Some of them were just selected as candidates but not entered the competition.

This is a very small subset of the vast collection of wildlife photography of Alessandra Santos and Cassio Lopes. Many other places and wildlife pictures make part of Alessandra & Cassio portfolio and can be seen in the Travel and Photography Chronicles of Alessandra & Cassio at travelandphotograph.blogspot.com, a blog where we share our experience in our trips and wildlife photography with the public and also they can be seen in the albums at our Flickr page at www.flickr.com/photo/foto-viagens/collections.
