Robin Pope Safaris Photo Awards & 2010 Photographic Safari.  The winning shot came down to the kingfishers and the zebras. Follow this link to see the winning photos: http://www.robinpopesafaris.net/gallery/guestphotos/2009_Photo_Competition/winner_and_recommendations/.

If you are at all interested in photography this is a great safari for you. Imagine - spend a week with like minded people, all interested in both photography and wildlife (big and small); and all wanting to improve their photographic skills. All talents and skill levels are welcome - just bring your own digital camera and laptop. It does not need to be a top-of-the-range model but one good enough to benefit from David's tips. The dates for 2010 are March 10th & May 19th 2010. Contact AfricaTours at 800 235 3692 for more detials.
