The rule of thirds, whilst more of a guideline than anything else, is a great trick to keep in mind when composing your shots. No need to be precise (and you can always adjust later with cropping), but it helps develop your compositional thinking whilst out in-the-field.

The rule of space in photography is simply the act of adding extra space in front of the direction that your subject is moving, looking or pointing to imply motion and direction and to lead the eye of the viewer. Incredibly simple trick and worth the extra few seconds to think about and act on when taking a photo.

This incredible moment when a leopardess successfully evades some hyenas that are trying to keep track of her.

This hyena was fed up of the pesky vultures trying to share his meal, so decided to move it into a more secluded area. Amazing behaviour to witness on nothing sides, and great photo opportunities!

Nothing quite like spending time with elephants, especially when you’re with such a relaxed herd like this! It refills the soul 😍🐘

That exciting moment when some feeding elephants don’t want nearby lions to be around. Poor lions were just trying to get some sleep, imagine waking up to see this coming towards you! 😂

Two leopards playing… the cheeky boy couldn’t help but keep instigating moments if play, which I’m sure Mom was fed up of (especially after recently making a kill for them both)

When a leopard and hippo come face to face...

Following on from last week's image about the honey-mooning lion couple, here's a bit more of the action for you. Fascinating to watch this kind of behaviour but also the growling reverberates through you when they're this close - nothing quite like being there in real life, but hopefully this clip gives a small idea.

Beautiful sighting of a leopard as she calmly strolled by us, giving up on a hunt after being spotted by the nearby impalas. No doubt she'd try again later, but for now she needed to clear the area for the impalas to stand down from high alert, so we let her disappear into the bush. Amazing moments like this are what make safaris so addicting - you can never predict what's round the next corner or what stories will unfold before you.

A glimpse into the high-adrenaline adventure some of our guests experienced recently - taking a scenic helicopter tour over the Greater Kruger and Blyde River Canyon area. We love being able to facilitate ways to gain new perspectives on the areas they visit - and this is a must do!

Volume up! How to end the day in epic fashion? Find yourself a pride of lions as they start contact-calling all around you. Unbelievable and unforgettable!

Any modern digital camera that's been released in the last decade is capable of taking excellent photos. As much as people focus on the gear and kit, it's imperative to understand that you do not need to buy the most expensive camera in order to take good pictures whilst on your African safari. More often that not, the trusty phone is more than capable of capturing the scene in front of you :)
