My South African Photo Safari

[Lawrence]

Prior to going on this trip giraffe were my favourite animal but I really don't know any more. To me all animals are beautiful.
Look at this little character - not a care in the world in his adventurous life. Everything is new and exciting - even these silly humans who sit in their vehicles taking photos;
"Come down and play you lot!"

"Come down and play you lot!" MOM MAY NOT AGREE.

Not such a great photo SOOC but with a bit of tweaking and the like I think it is ok.
Just don't study the sharpness too much

Thanks @Roy1961
I haven't checked the like counter

I'm pretty pleased with the photos overall for some though I would do things a bit differently basedon what I have learned from these.
Yesterday I found a whole series of Lion shots which were far too grainy. Oh well there is always next year's trip

Just when you thought I'd disappeared ...

What a cracking thread with great images, being late to the party i took the lazy way and chose display images.

Thanks for the excellent thread Lawrence, I am off to South Africa (Welgevonden, Limpopo) also Cape town in a couple of days time so thought I would have a search for safari tips here.
Loved reading this and really enjoyed your pics
