Amazing set of photos, KD! Each photo displays your technical skill, and and conveys an emotional bond with the animal. Thanks for providing us with these wonderful moments!

You have high exceptions of yourself if those are "bottom of barrel" Very nice sets.

All the guides I was with if Africa referred to wild dog vs painted wolf. Here is an interesting picture

thanks Doc. The first 2 passes were relatively easy. It gets more difficult with each pass and hence scraping the bottom

The picture is amazing. thanks for sharing. These dogs are called painted wolfs and/or African hunting dogs as you rightly pointed out.
there is a recent episode on BBC Dynasties where they were referred to as painted wolves.

These are gorgeous Mr. KD

Number eight knocks my socks off!

I can't imagine seeing all those lions at one time looking through my camera WOW...
How many lions were in front of you taking this oh so special picture number 8? Love it - bravo...

Mrs. BB

thanks Mrs. BB. the total pride was approx 22, with 2 dominant males, 9 females and 11 sub adults/juvis and cubs
here is a shot of approx 13 of them, which our guide called a PILE of lions, not a pride.

13 lions pile.

Thanks Issac
Luckily there are many chances to shoot so the barrel gets filled up fast

Always nice to go through the vault and find some quality and yet unprocessed photos. These really make me feel like I was in Africa. There is great diversity. Very nice.

Scrape away, KD, scrape away! Those are wonderful images and I really would like to see how your barrel actually looks like. YGMV, buddy!

Given its such a popular destination, there a lots of wildlife images coming out of Africa. These are extra nice bud. #2, 6 and 8 are particular stand outs for me. Some bottom of the barrel shots!

thanks Henrik. the tough task is selecting which images to process since one tends to take so many pictures and it is very difficult to discard even the sub par one.
