Sorry I couldn't get through the whole post Conrad - I got a msg from my ISP that I have exceeded my image allowance for the month on this one post...
I'll be back ~ Ron
Excellent post I loved the 100 shots and scrolling through them all and reading the captions. Great slow shutter shot of the cheetah. I like the motion on that. There all excellent and hard to comment on 100 but I like how you have put together the trip in the post. Ron
Conrad you did it yet again my friend...OUTSTANDING! It looks like an amazing trip...fun,glorious and WOW! Thanks so much for taking me with you through these pics....fantastic!!
Looking forward to seeing more.
I may now be late for work after going through all these. Super wonderful set. Love the shot of that girl crying. Wonderful. As is the roller, the cheetah, the lion, the chameleon, the... etc etc. Looking forward to a bunch more from you guys.
Dang! My iPad cannot handle this post Conrad ... For real ! I need to go get my laptop. This story is good, I mean great, I mean awesome, I mean amazing! I'm so happy for you to get to experience and capture your amazing trip ... Gotta go get that laptop, will be back...
You know you've done a great job with your images and capturing emotion when you extract tears of compassion and tears from humor my friend. I got stuck on #46 and #47 for quite some time but as I managed to pull away you extracted many enormous smiles
Congrats on 15k my friend, that seems insignificant as compared to what you have put together here in this single post, it didn't seem 100 pictures long, it seemed 100 pictures short for me, I anxiously anticipate what else you have to share, I am truly in awe at this moment. I am overwhelmed with emotion from your work, really I am
I am happy you got your shot of Lilac Roller, what a beauty it truly is and with a clean BG Wow, how cool is #93 taken from the back of an elephant, great light, depth and composition Conrad, you saw that one well You got a killer down in the dirt lizard shot that is monterously outrageously wickedly cool. You made numerous great shots of birds(#86) you have never seen, also love the monkey shot! YThe slow ss pan shots are very nicely done IMO too!
You took time out for florals................I love ya man! Pulmeria pink is a beauty
Fungus among us may have started when the captain turned off the A/C
It just doesn't stop, the awesome furry cats and kittens, the make shift barber shop and shoe shop and tire store, incredible way of life, ours is waaaay tooooo complicated!
The company of friends sure played into this expedition well, Ant cut loose and sure can 'cut a rug', I think he needed that I'm glad that cactus was to your left when you went ziplining Nothing short of incredible scenery you included and the shots of you and the birthday boy and Chaddy and Ant are perfect
I'm glad you kept it short, I tried too
Wow, I will be looking at these many times, what a freakin' treat!

Chad, I've been wondering when you'd post - I glanced at the NYC pics before work - Don't you guys know that in NYC pedestrians are mere speed bumps in the road ! Looks like you had a great time -I check out the rest after work.

100? That's all? I mean that's the closest one gets to be in Africa without having to actually go there.
Awesome post, Conrad. Just a fantastic set of photos, very interesting story-telling, and incredibly detailed documentation (sometimes too much details ). I thoroughly enjoyed the post, as if I would a NatGeo program. That Roller in #99 is so colorful, great shot!
I wouldn't mind going through another long post from you my friend.
Sheer epic-ness. Wow factor of 11 out of 10. I'm gonna be revisiting this post for days to come! Glad you had a good trip!
500....... FIVE HUNDRED GIGS!?!?! Kinda beats my buddies 900 pictures of large JPEGS he took on a very similar trip!
Conrad glad to see your safely back home. Looks like you and the guys had a wonderful time and got some great shots. Africa is so beautiful and surreal you cannot quite believe it once you see it in person. Funny about the equipment picture, we all do that.
