Is it crazy that I'm still processing photos from my trip to Africa a year and a half ago? I used to process all my photos in order, but now I process them in whatever order I like. Otherwise you'd never see any new work! I just try to mix it up to keep things interesting :) This is a scene that we came across while driving between destinations in Tanzania. It was one of … [Read more...] about Maasai Goat Herders in Tanzania

Zebras in the Serengeti
In Serengeti National Park, Tanzania, where the vast plains meet the sky, it first seems unlikely that there could be as many animals as I've heard about. After all, it's so flat, wouldn't I be able to see them? As I bumped along the dirt road, a warm breeze on my face, I could think only of the endless sky and endless grasses and wonder, where are they? But soon enough, as … [Read more...] about Zebras in the Serengeti

Just a Jackal
When going on an African safari, it’s always the big animals that get all the attention. The big 5. But I was quite amused by the playful jackals that seemed to appear every time the vehicle was moving slowly. I think they were just as curious as I was. I photographed this one in Tarangire National Park, Tanzania. Since they can be quick on their feet, I set my ISO up … [Read more...] about Just a Jackal
Acacia Trees at Sunrise
An iconic African landscape: acacia trees silhouetted at sunrise in Serengeti National Park Tanzania. Every day in Africa I got up in the darkness so I could be in position when the magic light awakened the animals. When it was still too dark to photograph animals, I was able to make some landscape images during the very first moments when the golden light hits the sky. … [Read more...] about Acacia Trees at Sunrise
