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.
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
Congrats Conrad - 15, 000 posts and the African novel! I really like this post and the way it is presented, a job VERY well done, a great flow to it and a great story to tell highlighted by an awesome set of images. Excellent work!
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.
Looks like you had a great time. Photos are wonderful to say the least. I really like the Southern Yellow Billed Hornbill. Great looking bird! There are so many others that are just way bitchen. Can't wait to see some more.
