Thom, Mark and the students captured images with Nikon Z8 and Z9. They will discuss focus, exposure, creativity and composition on safari. As well as the use of light and lens, to capture award winning photos!

Join us for an online photo recap of one of Africa’s seven natural wonders. The Okavango Delta in Botswana, a massive stretch of wetland that’s home to a wide-range of unique wildlife, various types of terrain and people.

Okavango has some of the most wide-ranging animal and bird populations you’ll find. In the past we have photographed 163 bird species and virtually every mammal and reptile present.
