We were and are extremely honoured too have been able to give the Anti Poaching, Farmers, Interns and Cheetah Conservation Staff a brief lecture on our finding with Lion issues. It was more a relaxing discussion than anything else and we shared some stories around the campfire later on with regards too experiences and methods, so to sum it all up, we already feel like this has been such a great success and we look forward to supporting CCB and Botswana nature conservation in the future, as they need every penny!!!!

This is one of my favourite frames from our epic lion-hunt sighting in the Kalahari recently. I saw the eland moving towards the lions and imagined getting a shot like this, but knew the eland would see the lions.

Guess what?? The eland didn’t see the lions! At least not until they initiated their chase. It didn’t end well for the eland, though.

This is pretty much a full frame vertical capture. It’s worth checking out on 500px in higher resolution too.

Techs:
Nikon D3s
Nikkor 500mm f4 VR-II
f5.6 | 1/800 SS | ISO-3200
