Finally got through the post (I thought about waiting for the movie to come out). That's a helluva trip. The images are astounding, especially the panning shots. That roller looks like it fell in with a graffiti artist. I'm waiting to see the other 15000+ shots.
I hope you find some good stuff in Guinea; it's close enough to Senegal to give me an idea of what I may see if I go.
Thanks for the great story.

Hahah! Hey Don! It was good to meet you in Bolsa Chica with Timmerz the other day! I'll have the other 15,000 picks up soon! I hope to find something in Guinea too. Pretty unlikely with it being for work, but we'll see!

Brilliant post Very well documented with amazing photography, makes me want to go to Africa.
I worked in SA for 4 years on and off in the eighties, didn't have much of a camera in those days only a P&S.
I really enjoyed viewing your pictures, not just the amazing wildlife, but the scenery and human interactions too.
Very well done Conrad
Thank you very much Colin! I tried to make the viewer feel as if they were there.

I've been to Africa several times and never seem to take any bird or insect photos --- thanks for shooting the little guys, the photos brought back a lot of memories thank you.
Two comments --- the meat of a kudu is tasty but I doubt if they would shoot a big bull for table-fare and only the natives would eat waterbuck as the skin is very oily and it affects the flavor of the meat.
I see! I heard about the waterbuck needing to be prepared a certain way. I'm still trying to figure out exactly what I ate

Conrad,
what more can be said?? Great shots for a great time... I'd be interested in how u planned this trip...Mark
It was not really planned, just happened because my sister-in-law found the safari online for my brother's birthday. The rest was a couple of quick calls to see who could go. Glad you liked the set Mark!
