Just arrived back from holidays. Usually we go away during the off-season for weddings but this year we made an exception because we went to Botswana on safari. The dry season is between May and September so May turned out to be the best time for us. We flew out to Johannesburg narrowly avoiding the infamous ash cloud from the unpronounable Icelandic volcano, the flight taking about 10 hours arriving at 6:30 am. Then we flew on to Maun in Northern Botswana and finally made it to Nxabega camp after a further flight, this time by light aircraft. After 24 hours travelling we had made it. The Nxabega camp is in the Okavango Delta one of the largest inland river deltas in the world.
The landscape is stunning which together with the wildlife makes the area a paradise for photographers. I had to force myself not to spend all of my time behind the camera. Though I won’t call myself a wildlife photographer it is difficult not to take great shots – well I like them!
