  • 'Bathing in the Dust'<br />
<br />
Zebra dust-bathing in the (almost dry) Boteti River bed at Khumaga. This is one such place that is so iconic of Botswana to me, even though it may not feature on most tourists' itineraries.

  • We were very privileged to witness the birth of a zebra foal during a Nxai Pan visit. The best image opportunities presented themselves after the actual birth when the mare was licking her young that was instinctively learning to balance on its four legs. Amazingly it could walk with ease within 15-20 minutes or so. Whilst all this was going on the lions were roaring only a few hundred meters away...<br />

  • When shooting in rain (and in Botswana we don't get that chance too often, so I am no expert) there are basically two different approaches; one is to use a slow enough shutter speed to blur the rain drops, creating streaks, or two, to use a high shutter speed and freeze the rain drops. The first approach is the more common one. In this case, however, there was enough light due to the conditions, an incoming local storm shower in the late afternoon, resulting in a rainbow against a dark sky plus raindrops reflecting the sunlight. When a fleeting moment like that occurs you are desperate for a subject in the right place and simply have to be thankful for whatever you can find, even if it is not entirely as you had envisaged or dreamt of. Shooting in these conditions was not easy, but a few seconds later shooting was near impossible as it bucketed down..

  • Creating good pan-blur shots is not easy at all and involves a lot of trial and error, but to me it is fun and even addictive in a way. I am not easily satisfied with these kind of shots though and also this one is not perfect, but it was one of the better ones from my recent trip and I kind of liked it due to the splashing water.

  • This is an image from 2013 I dug up from my unprocessed RAW files when searching for zebra images. It may well be too 'arty-farty' for many, but it really appealed to me, particularly in black & white.
