I have our new Great Migration Photo Safari dates confirmed for 2014 for the Masai Mara in Kenya. The great wildebeest migration is one of the world’s natural wonders, and is so often at the top of any wildlife photographer’s list of things to experience and photograph.

We are also offering a chance for early bookers to win free hot air balloon rides over the Masai Mara so that you can witness the event by air. I will have more details on this soon.

Our eight day safaris are limited to six people in each and we will be hosting five safaris. For more about these safaris, including dates and costs, see our Great Migration Photo Safari page here.

Only two places remain now for our 2013 Great Migration Photo Safaris.

Big Cat Photo Safaris 2014

I have two new safari dates confirmed for 2014, that of our African Big Cat Photo Safari in the Masai Mara in Kenya. The Mara is famous for its big cats, and as such it presents a wonderful opportunity to photograph lions, cheetahs and leopards. March, along with February and April, is a favoured season for big cats.

As well as this, it’s the beginning of the rainy season, and with that comes the big skies so loved by photographers. Needless to say there will be much else to see and photograph, including elephant, antelope, buffalo and hippo. And if we’re lucky, we may even see a black rhino.

We offer a prime location in the Masai Mara, exclusive vehicles with a row of seats per client, as well as Photoshop and Lightroom post processing guidance. Our photo safaris are especially geared for photographers in mind and we welcome photographers of all levels.

This eight day safari is limited to six people in each and we will be hosting two safaris. For more about this safari, including dates and costs, see our African Big Cat Photo Safari page here.

Notch

This is possibly my favourite portrait of Notch, and I’ve posted it here because I could see no point in it languishing on my hard drive unseen by others. It seemed such a waste otherwise.

Notch is the one of the largest and is the oldest lions in the Masai Mara at about 13-14 years of age. His age is attributed to the fact that he is constantly in the presence of one or more of his four sons, who all bear varying semblances of himself.

I’m back there again this coming week from tomorrow, so I’ll certainly be keeping an eye out for him.

Two New Print Releases

Photography / Prints / Wildlife / 0 comments

A picture of a giraffe licking its lips which I took only last month in Kenya has proved popular enough already for me to offer as an open edition print. Giraffes seem to a popular subject with many people, and this simple head shot is both clean and colourful.

Open prints have no restriction on the print run, so are not numbered or hand signed. However there is a signature printed on the print in place of where a hand signed one would be. As the others are, this one is available in sizes of 40cm, 60cm and 80cm.

2012 in Review in 10 Pictures

Photography / Wildlife / 12 comments

For 2012, my photographic year did not really begin until July when I visited New Zealand, but I made up for it during the last five months of the year with two trips to Kenya, establishing more photo safaris, alongside accumulating a few more wildlife images. 2013 is starting to look busy already as a result, so happily, after a slow start, the grand total of 2012 was one of progression in more ways than one.
