Classic High Key... This Chobe Elephant Bull dusting on an overcast day was the perfect opportunity to create a simple but beautiful high key image. By overexposing +2EV I could almost entirely blow out the sky while bringing out all the details and texture on the elephant. Further enhancing this effect in post-production by increasing contrast and clarity and converting the image into B&W resulted in this end result. Hope you like it!

Aprilâs First Class feature takes us to Botswana with Desert & Delta Safarisâone of Botswanaâs oldest and most recognizable safari brands. The company is a continent leader in ecotourismâthink electric vehicles and solar-powered boatsâand focuses on the empowerment of the countryâs residentsâ95 percent of lodge staff positions are held by Botswana citizens. We spent time at two of the nine Desert & Delta lodgesâthe Chobe Game Lodge, Botswanaâs oldest five-star hotel (where Elizabeth Taylor married Richard Burton) and Camp Moremi located on the beautiful Okavango Delta.

Beginning, middle and end. What every good story should have right? The Nile Crocodiles were a consistent part of our trip to Botswana from start to finish. Unintentionally I found that during my trip I had taken close ups of the beautiful patterns that make up these creatures, making up the beginning, middle and end of one! #closeupphotography #patternsinwildlife #nileceocodile #thisischobe #wildlifebotswana #africansafari #choberiver #wildlifephotography
