Digital Photography itself.  We need to get out to where the action is – but we also need to charge batteries and download images every night.  We need to put ourselves in great places and then have the elbow room to work the scenes!

So, we got together with  Wildland Adventures and built the Tanzania Safari. 

We’ll break into the safari game in Tarangire National Park where we’ll have great wildlife concentrated along the river and the famous baobab trees.  Our lodge overlooks some of the most exciting wildlife habitat in the park.

We have booked space at Lake Masek Lodge, a new luxury tented camp in the southern Serengeti that will be situated close to the action.  We'll also be able to take a rare "Maasai escorted" walk between the camp and Lake Masek, where we can expect to see hippos and learn more about the ways of the Maasai.

Bottom line:

Every night we’ll have opportunities to download and recharge.

We are set up for up to 5 people plus one of us and a driver/guide per vehicle so everyone has both a window and an open top to shoot out of the 4x4 safari rig.

Our lodging is always close to the action

Our guides, Hadji and Dominic, are Bantu, extremely well-trained guides, and have learned to work with us to position our safari vehicles at angles that support good light and composition, in addition to proximity to great wildlife.

We (Diane and Bob) will work closely with the guides to assure that we get to great places in great light and take the time to work quality compositions and action (instead of lots of short stops with little opportunity to work the scene).

As you know, we are serious about getting you to great light and great compositions.  We work hard to minimize our impacts on the wildlife, ecosystems and cultures we encounter along the way – our practices will be stricter than park rules!
