Kenya is one of the best locations for wildlife photography. There are many national parks with numerous animals and birds that can only be found here
There are special photography safaris to the Masai Mara that last an entire two weeks. Here you get to take as many pictures as you like. Whether you are an amateur or professional photographer, it is advisable to bring some long lenses and join a photography tour that usually starts early in the morning when the animals are getting up and wandering around.
You will mostly be taking photographs while atop a safari vehicle and it is helpful to have only four photographers per vehicle to avoid blocking each others views.
Other great destinations for photography include Mount Kenya National Park, Samburu Game Reserve, Lewa Downs and Lake Nakuru.
At Lewa Downs, you will have an opportunity to photograph the rare white rhinos and can also find lions, elephants, cheetahs, zebra and giraffes at Samburu Game Reserve.
One can take excellent shots of Beautiful Flamingos at Lake Nakuru where millions of flamingos and pelicans live.
Tour companies will provide you with experienced driver and guides to direct you to the best places to view and take pictures of the animals.
Most safari vehicles have two-way radios for drivers to communicate with one another. If one vehicle finds some interesting animals, they can inform other vehicles to come over and see them.
There is great accommodation in nice lodges and tented camps. All the camps have nice beds, private bathrooms and nicely prepared meals. You will discover that animals come very close to your places of accommodation. It is not uncommon to find monkeys rummaging for food near your tent or a large buffalo grazing a few meters away from your sleeping quarters.
So it’s advisable to be careful since some of these animals can be very dangerous. It also gives an opportunity to take rare photos too.
Some game parks in Kenya cover huge expanses of land and may be difficult to travel by road, especially in the rainy season. To solve this problem, they provide Hot air balloon tours.
This is an ideal way to see the landscape and wildlife from above ground giving an excellent bird eye view and opportunity to take wonderful photographs and capture moments in the animal life occurring without human interference.
