Elsa, my lower mandible is still hurting me, after my jaw dropped down to the desk after seein your absolutely fabulous set of photos! But then, nothing less that I would expect to come from you. As for bird photography, it looks like you have trained a lot :D! And, speaking of your next trip, are you planning to add a couple of photography workshop days there?! Or anywhere else, for that matter? But for now, please do post as many of photos as possible.

@mtanenbaum Thank you so much for the comment. I cant tell you how I appreciate it 

 

@xelas Alex - I am glad there was a desk between your jaw and the floor. Re the next trip - when I take a client, one automatically end up sharing/helping/training - to get the best shots. Thats why one goes to these places after all.  Not everyone needs/wants "help", and as you know - even one who teaches, learns a lot from others. The old saying - "if you want to learn something - teach it" is absolutely true in photography. I assume you are thinking of sending the wife :) while you keep the fort at home :D:D
oh... and I have already  booked for next year......

You have booked or you are booked? BTW care to share dates? Not that I have any intention to send Zvezda anywhere, on her own. She might get lost (or distracted) and never to come home ...

@xelas I booked for something like 7 - 31 October next year. I "might" have space for one person. Zvezda is just the right person :D

Since you have met me - you know she is safe with me. And since "you are so much better at photography than she is " - best you send her :D I mean I cant teach you anything hahahaha

That one, of course, is just a joke. There are only two things I am better at then she is, and one is driving a vehicle and second is not photography :D.

 

I will contact you directly for details about next year photo workshop; an offer even Zvezda will not want to refuse (I hope).

@Ratdcoops  Thank you kindly 
 

@Bush dog Thank you. For me personally I feel that editing is as much part of the process as taking the image. Thank goodness I like editing ! 

 

@xyz99  thank you :) I am one of "those" people who don't like witnessing a kill, so I prefer the kinder shots. These lion were very very close - so I couldnt zoom out more to even include more of it's ears. It's a good thing I didnt have to catch my own supper - or I would have been a vegan.
