The Northern Serengeti, especially around Kogatende, is a gem for wildlife lovers. With its mix of rolling grasslands, scattered woodlands, and the winding Mara River, this area near the Kenyan border (literally a stone throw away from the Wild Eye Mara Camp) offers a much quieter, more personal safari experience compared to the busier southern [...]

Open plains, migratory herds, lions, cheetahs and Kopjes. These are the icons of the Serengeti. It’s quite bizarre that this was my very first time visiting the Serengeti after 13 years of being in the photographic safari industry. Whilst I’ve explored the southern circuit in Tanzania and visited Ruaha and Nyerere (formerly the Selous) National [...]

On arrival in the Mara Triangle Conservancy it was clearly evident that the region had very little rain. Little did I know that this was apparently the driest the Mara ecosystem has been in the last 20 years. Not a hint of greenery in any of the standing grasses, just a burnt orange and yellow [...]

What is a Photographic Safari? It seems that everyone has their own view and opinion on what actually constitutes a photographic safari.

Uganda. No Primates. That was the brief for this private guided safari experience. It may seem rather unusual but, given that this particular guest has had the privelege of trekking for Western Lowland Gorillas in Odzala-Kokoua National Park with me, it makes a bit more sense. The gorilla trekking experience is very different in the [...]
