We still have room on the next trip that Harry's going on, who is in?

You got me sold, Linda and I will be going. It is truly a trip of a life time.

Cheers,

Thanks Carl. This was my second trip to Africa and I have a third scheduled for February. I get goose flesh every time I go there. It is just an amazing place and a photographer's dream.

Harry, did you ever use anything longer than 400mm on this trip? In one photo you posted that you used the 200-400 with a 1.4TC, but the EXIF shows that the focal length was actually 280mm, so apparently you were at the short end.

The 200-400 was my longest lens. I used it with a TC frequently, usually the 1.4. The bextra reach provided for by the TC was rarely necessary except for a few bird captures.

Its very hard for me to communicate the excitement and the beauty of Africa. Fortunately I had a few cameras with me that manage to communicate far better than my words ever could.

Sunrise - D800E with the 70-200mm 2.8

Wart hog -D800E and the 200-400 f/4

cheetah - D800E and the 200-400 f/4 + 1.4 TC

a shy elephant - D4 and the 70-200 2.8

an elephant calf getting a helping trunk from his mom
D800E and the 200-400 f/4

a grey heron at sunset
D800E and the 200-400

the yawn - D800E and the 200-400 f/4

young elephant - D800E and the 200-400 f/4

So are my grandkids. They requested elephants pictures before I left so I took lots of them for the kids.

Wow very nice photos. You have now inspired me but I would try a Safari if I were able to go on such a wonderful adventure. Again thanks for sharing very nice and inspirational.

Wild Life up close ... WOW! Gorgeous captures. For some reason b/w shots to me didn't really create the "drama", i preferred the colored shots.

Thanks Dan amd the last time I looked there was still one opening for the 2013 Kenya trip. I'm sure Andy and Marc would gladly charge you the same price they charged me. Plus I would pay you a whole $5/day to sherpa my gear.
