Congratulations to Cathy Withers-Clarke with this image entitled 'Waiting For The Storm'. Cathy from Western Cape, South Africa has won 6 months membership to The Society of International Nature and Wildlife Photographers.

Cathy explains ''The picture was taken on a stormy day in the Namaqualand in the Northern Cape of South Africa, and is one of those shots that you know you will never get again. I was struck by the fabulous contrast of the bright orange Namaqua daisies and the storm clouds and when the Springbok ram appeared at the top of the ridge and stood keeping watch, I knew I was never going to get a more dramatic frame for one of these beautiful animals.''

Taken on a Nikon D3200 with a Sigma 18-250mm lens, f/6.3, ISO 400, 1/1600.
