Kgalagadi Blog Day Seven - 2010-02-05
The last night, sitting on the verandah at Mata Mata Tented camp I took this long exposure capture of the Kgalagadi night.
We woke early, no festive thoughts; today we drive south and out of the park. Nothing of great interest as we drove slowly, never in too much of a hurry to leave.
Forgot to mention that yesterday we had a long d...

Birds in flight - 2009-12-09
The question I am asked most often by other photographers is “how are you able to take so many flight shots?” The answer is with the Canon EF 400mm 1:5.6 L Ultrasonic lens (400mm L). Its 400mm range and very fast auto focus makes it the ideal lens for birds in flight.
I have developed a few tricks to capture birds on the wing. In the Kgalagadi on...
