Nature photographers are a strange bunch. Who else would think it exciting to get up at around 4:30 AM on a chilly April morning, pick up a coffee and a donut at a local 24-hour gas station, drive almost an hour, find one's way to the shooting location by flashlight, set up while avoiding the tripod legs of other equally strange people and patiently wait for the sunrise in the distant horizon to capture its reflection on the underside of an arch no more than fifty feet long and fifteen feet high? (see Mesa Arch at National Parks page). To a nature photographer, it's not only exciting and a way to create great images to share and sell but it gives us the opportunity to promote a sense of stewardship as well. The environment that makes up our natural world is both stunning and delicate. Treat it kindly; handle it gently; support its preservation. Welcome to our website. We hope you'll find our interpretation and vision pleasing. Thanks for dropping by.

     Recent Travels - KENYA

 

What an experience! Last Fall, we accompanied the Joseph Van Os Safaris photo trip to Kenya's Masai Mara. We were able to shoot everything from African Fish Eagle to Zebra; both the very bold and very shy. Babies were plentiful and we enjoyed watching the interaction between sibling cubs and between them and their Moms. Wonderful sunrise/sunsets too!

We were out every morning from before sunrise to around 11, returning for lunch then back out again from 3:30 or so until sunset. Our guides knew exactly where to take us for great photo ops and we were really impressed with their knowledge of wildlife - birds and mammals - and how they could anticipate their movements (sort of like Wayne Gretzky knowing where the puck "was going to be"). Because of the very dusty environment, I kept a 70-200mm on one camera body and a 200-400mm with a 1.4x teleconverter on another at all times to keep my camera sensors clean. All our shooting was from open top seven-passenger Land Rovers or Toyota Land Cruisers with only three photographers per vehicle.

The accommodations and service at Masai Intrepids camp were outstanding and lived up to their 5-star rating. Our tents were elevated and hardwood floored with four poster beds, hot water, shower - the works. Talk about roughing it!
