These photographic galleries portray some of the Magic of Nature and Wildlife from diverse environments both in the UK and Africa. I am slowly adding to the galleries as time and money permit.
There are also pages of Information for many of the National Parks and Game Reserves in Kenya, Tanzania and Botswana that I have visited, giving details of the Wildlife that is to be encountered, the climate and vegetation, and the likelyhood of being able to get away from other tourists.
There are pages of Photographic hints and techniques which may give you a starting point from which to develop your skills.
If you enjoy these photos then remember that all of nature's beautiful places need protecting right now, or else most of them, and the animals and plants that make them so special, will soon be gone. Between 2007 and 2014 144000 savannah elephants and an unknown number of forest elephants were lost to poaching. Since then the numbers are hard to quantify; they are thought to have stabilised in East Africa but are on the rise in Southern African states.
If we don't act now then elephants and many other animals could be extinct in the wild within our children's lifetimes.
Please consider helping in any way you can; even if it just means a Christmas donation to a worthwhile cause, or perhaps adding your name to an Avaaz petition calling for action to preserve a threatened species or an endangered habitat. There are some useful sites on my Links page.
Click on the thumbnails in the galleries and on most of the other pages to see the full size pictures. As well as revealing a drop down list by rolling over it, clicking on each heading on the top menu bar, or any of the drop down list submenus will show more information.
If you are considering going to any wild places then I'd go soon, as you can see from the counter below that we are rapidly expanding and our requirements for land and resources are ever increasing.
