Wild Dogs in South Africa

We've been traveling in South Africa for little over a month now, and so far we've been very lucky. We found the wild dogs we were looking for on more than one occasion, and got some great elephant shots, while tracking a large her on foot - an unforgettable experience. We're now heading east, hoping to catch a glimpse of the elusive leopard.

Tanzania: unusually wet

As a result of the unusually wet weather in the months before our arrival in Tanzania, the migration was shattered all over the Serengeti. The herds were more numerous, but smaller.
Luckily, we managed to find one of the bigger herds near the east of the Serengeti and we spent many hours observing thousands of wildebeest and zebra, moving like a giant lawnmower.


Less pleasant were the countless tsetse flies that were after our blood, and their painful and itching bites caused us many restless nights. Next stop will be South Africa, where we'll go looking for wild dogs, a highly endangered species.

The green green grass of... Kenia!

The past month in Kenya has been incredible. As the rains still hadn't stopped - it was supposed to be the dry season - we got a lot of great wildlife shots with lush and green vegetation as apposed to the yellow and dry scenery we're so used to seeing. We're off to Tanzania now and hope to get a glimpse of the great migration - wish us luck!

Tour through Africa for a book we're working on

For the next four months we will be traveling in Africa, working on two photo books. Our journey will start in Kenya, and from there we'll go on to Tanzania, South Africa and Madagascar. We'll be back early July, but you can still contact us through email. However, internet access in the bush will be limited, so it might take a little longer than usual for us to get back to you.
