2018-04-29: Kenya Highlights Video

I’ve had a great time over the past 10 days reviewing all of my video clips from my time in Kenya and putting together some highlights as the last instalment of my wide angles only project. With the exception of the lion cub video clip, which was shot on a Panasonic FX1000, all clips were done on the Gopro, and I edited and built the video using the free Gopro studio software.

If you missed the video from Uganda, you can find that here.

Wishing everyone a fantastic week ahead. It’s time for me to ponder what my topic will be for May.

2018-04-22: Wide Angles – Stitched Panoramas

I had planned to put together my GoPro clips from Kenya this week, but time slipped away from me, so I have had to put that off until next week. Instead, I am sharing some of the stitched panorama images I have created over several trips.

2018-03-20: WPC: I’d rather be…

There’s a simple answer to the question posed in this week’s photo challenge “Where would you rather be?”.

I’d rather be on safari!

20180320_WPC I'd rather be3.jpg — I’d rather be watching the sun set over the bush with a glass of wine in hand, and great company to have a chat with.

I’d rather be watching the birds from the shade of a lodge veranda.

20180320_WPC I'd rather be2.jpg — I’d rather be looking out at the vast expanse of the universe, listening to the sounds of the bush at night.

I’d rather be taking the opportunity to discover new cultures.

I’d rather be out learning and experiencing different ways of life.

I’d rather be looking at this view over lunch, than working away on my computer.

I was a bit delayed in getting this posted, so I will keep this post nice and brief. Just an elephant at their scratching tree to start the week. I think elephants are a good way to start any week 🙂

With the nasty weather setting in, I am again dreaming of the warmth of Africa. Here is a memory of Amboseli to start the week.

Isn’t this little guy just the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? I spotted him on my last afternoon in the Masai Mara, and while he started out acting all tough, he soon realized that we weren’t any type of threat, and relaxed completely.

2017-10-16: Monochrome Monday

While we were driving from camp to the river crossing location, we came across an area where wildebeest were moving in a column, for as far and the eye could see in either direction. I tried creating a stitched panorama, but even that only provides a hint of the overwhelming number of animals on the plains.
