Hi to all.
My wife and I have had an absolutely wonderful time during a safari in Kenya.
We visited 5 parks/reserves and have been very lucky in spotting the big 5 plus
more. Wildlife and landscape is surreal. Lovely and friendly people, always greeting us with a smile.
Recommended to anyone, although we saw no-one with small children around....
Enjoy the pics!
PS. Camera used : Canon 20D
EFS 17-85 IS USM
EF 70-200 f4 L USM

Yep, the Canon L series lens are a piece of engineering marvels IMO.
Mind you, I was constantly on 200mm - a 300mm prime or even 100-400 would
have been ideal for close ups from a distance, but luckily we had a terrific guide
who was a real expert at his work. Got right up to most animals. Closest was 3 metres from a leopard. Amazing.
