Ranger Safaris partnered with Paul Joynson-Hicks MBE to offer a special Photographic Safari & Clinic. The 2 week program is designed for serious and amateur photographers that want to improve their photographic skills. The itinerary is packed with extended game drives, bush walks and cultural visits to give participants a large variety of photo opportunities.

This is a scheduled departure operating on a shared basis with only three participants per vehicle to provide window seats on each side of the vehicle as well as access to the game hatch. The maximum size of the group will be 12. The safari is limited to 12 participants using four 4×4 vehicles with three travellers per vehicle so that every traveller has full access to windows on each side of the vehicle as well as the game viewing hatch.

Paul will rotate between vehicles to offer instruction on all aspects of photography from how your camera works. You don’t need a smart DSLR he can instruct you on whatever camera you have. Topics include the basics photographic techniques of exposure, depth of field and composition as well as advanced techniques such as panning, night photography and time lapse photography. Each vehicle will be driven by a senior Ranger Safaris driver/guide experienced in travelling with clients who want brilliant photos.

Paul will do computer instruction for those interested. From various aspects of processing images to get the best of them from Adobe LightRoom to picture management, storage and back up. One of the most productive times we have on these safaris is when we look at each other’s images and find out what works and what doesn’t work compositionally speaking.

The Safari begins May 21st with the first night at in Arusha. Participants will visit Arusha NP, Tarangire NP, Lake Manyara NP, Lake Eyasi, Ngorongoro Conservation Area and Serengeti NP. Contact one of our knowledgeable consultants to get more details at alpha@alphauk.co.uk
