Khwai Photographic
Unfortunately we have come to the end of the Khwai photographic , it has been a wonderful experience for all who went . I think its safe to say that we all learnt something about photography ,(I even learnt some new things), we not only learnt about photography but also learnt something about ourselves .
It was a very diverse group, from Adri and Rassie from Pholikwane ,regular bush fanatics who love camping frequently to Ali from the UK , who landed 3weeks ago for the first time in Africa and landed on a totally self sufficient camping photographic in Botswana.

We were fortunate enough to have lions close to camp and we could experiment with some night photography form the game viewers.
we were shooting manual at 800 ISO ,between 1/50 -1/100 s at f/4

Some other high lights were the 17 sable we found , as well as the mating leopard and wild dogs

I’m compelled to leave a comment on this blog after looking at the photos. Great images I must say. The expression on the lion’s face is priceless.
