PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS – WHAT TO DO TO GET YOUR MEMORIES ON FILM!

With technology at an all-time high with smartphones providing sharp images of the wildlife and landscapes! Safaris and photography go hand in hand since the swap from shots from the gun to the camera came around. Pioneered by the valley's own Norman Carr, sharing what we saw on safari is quite a thrill rather than trying to ship back a dead buck!
