It definitely never gets old. There is something about being in the presence of things that create "awe" that keeps one coming back for more.
Super interesting to see you substitute the shorter focal lengths with primes over a 70-200. While I do shoot primes for dance, studio etc which is a bit more predictable I usually use the zoom which is flexible but still 2.8. This said when given the right opportunity, I’d take my 50/85/135 over the zoom any day

You are going to have a blast. I was in Amboseli and the Mara conservancies.

you have to be patient with the short glass primes in order for the shot to materialize but it all pays off.
what a beautiful set of pictures. I was browsing for Kenya Maasai lens recommendations and came across your reply and stumbled on this thread eventually
Congrats on the Feature! Amazing images, you should be proud. I especially love the way you played with shadow on some of the portraits. Really beautiful.
I was in Amboseli earlier this year and am returning to the Mara Conservancies next year (Mara North) so your images only add to my excitement to get back. Thank you for sharing!
