Planning a safari around the best light and the best shots
A photography safari works best with a few changes to the usual plan. Our photographic safaris are already built around them.
The first and last hour of daylight give the softest, warmest light. A photographer's itinerary puts you in position for those moments instead of following a standard schedule.
Fewer people per vehicle means better angles and room to move between windows and the roof hatch.
Rather than moving on quickly, we wait at a good sighting for better light, interesting behavior or a better position. It is a very different rhythm from a normal game drive.
A 100-400mm zoom covers most wildlife shots. A beanbag or window mount keeps the camera steadier than holding it by hand.
The dry season brings golden, dusty light, while the green season brings dramatic skies and storms. Each offers its own kind of image.
