Botswana Sunset by MarselvanOosten

Well, there you go, I’ve done it: the subject is in the middle of the frame. The composition police will not be pleased. Yet I like it as it is. Sure, I could have shot it as a vertical with less dead space on both sides, but then I would have lost the interesting clouds and the sense of space.

Anyway, after months of running tours we’re finally back home, and home means office work. The good news for me is that office work often equates to image processing, so I guess it’s not so bad. I’m currently going through my archives for several reasons, and this image of a meerkat is one of many that I found in my Botswana folder.

If you’ve never been to Botswana, then you absolutely should. It’s wildlife photography heaven. We’re running two tours there in April/May, and due to a cancellation we now have three openings on the 25 April – 4 May trip. I hope you haven’t spent your Christmas bonus yet!

If you’re interested, and of course you are, then please check out our website for more information on this trip:
Squiver Photo Tours & Workshops

Hope to see you there!

Desert Brew by eyeofalens

Desert Brew

One of many taken in Death Valley
on my 2nd evening here & things got allot more moodier than this,
& the winds were just howling.
It was surreal being out here with no one else around, other than watching people leaving in the distance as the sun faded away.
Walking back to the car in the dark, feels a whole lot further than when walking in during daylight.

Sand & Cameras don’t mix. but you do what you do.
Allot of places I could not access, as luck would have it a series of storms days before & the week before brought once in a thousand year level of rains ! roads washed out, no access.
