Hartebest, always resting?

How come the most common way we see the hartebest is its horns just in fron of the camera? It really seems drawn to it! Other animals ought to search the shadow of camera placement too?

A while ago one of the scientists mentioned that most of the cameras are attached to trees, and since there's not a lot of shade out there on the savannah, the animals are attracted to shade to have a rest during the heat of the day. There are certainly a few trees with traps on them that the hartebeest seem particularly at home under!
