Folks I've been doing a lot of TROPHY SHOTS here both on my FREE selection process service and my FOR PAY CLIENTS... I am grateful with the response as they trickle in  However, today I had some free time to do some of my own AFRICAN SAFARI WILDLIFE PHOTOGRAPHS. I have over 2300 images that I've never completed processing from a year and a half ago...  I'd better get to it....LOLIt truly brought back some incredible memories! What would we do without those most cherished photographs caught in a precious moment of time of thrilling adventure. Gazing upon these images today it just seemed like TIME stopped immediately!!! And suddenly, very quietly... """I went there""", again and again and AGAIN!!! I went back to those exciting moments and the tranquil peace overwhelmed my soul with instant gratification. It was very enjoyable to begin to sort through the nummerable images and begin to select my favorites. I'm very pleased with these images I'll be featuring, I call it... "The SPIRIT of the WILD"...[Limited Edition] I will have a limited number of prints made up in high-resolution and will be making them available very soon to AR FORUM members first. Enjoy | ||

Man, oh man, do I hear you! My wife was becoming (playfully) weary of hearing me saying "I can't believe I'm going to Africa!" for over a year leading up to my trip. Now she is becoming downright weary of hearing "I can't believe I've gone to Africa!" My mother, after hearing the earlier part of the above comment for 40+ years, has mastered the fine art of "selective deafness". And, by the way...that is one SPECTACULAR photo!!! | |||

Thank you, it definitely was just one of the many highlights of my safari...I hunted for the first part of my trip and when I had exhausted my funds...I started shooting them up with my Canon gear...  As I cull through my photos today as well, I have kept going back there again and again and AGAIN...I'm glad it'll never end  | |||

Great pics, I was wondering what kind of camera setup would you recommend for shooting in Africa? Not filming just taking pictures. Thanks " Knowledge without experience is just information. " - Mark Twain | |||

aussie21, Here's what I've learned and hope it helps some. I am in the camp that says buy into either Nikon or Canon...You're buying into a system...see whose offerings you feel most comfortable with and why...shoot what you can afford...the majority of us will have to make compromises due to costs... spend less on the body and way more on the lense...great glass is IMPORTANT. I'd rather shoot with an entry level dslr and great glass than an expensive body and mediocre glass. Practice, practice, practice... Know that the best gear in the world will not give you the greatest of images rather it is ALL in the SKILL level of the photog. Everyone must start somewhere...it's fun and frustrating all at the same time as there is definitely a steep learning curve if you demand the best quality from your images. Know that serious photography is what I call... The 200% GAME 100% skill getting the shot in-camera 100% skill in post-processing Don't expect professional quality images simply from buying expensive gear, one must play the 200% GAME... It is intense and a whole lotta fun and always learning new things! If you need more help give me a pm... Hope this helps some. | |||

Thanks for the info. I've heard that some of the compact digitals like the cannon powershot SX20 IS are very nice and definitely wallet freindly, is this true? " Knowledge without experience is just information. " - Mark Twain | |||
