Photography

[Alexandro Faria]

Hey guys,

I know we're all hunters here, but I also know many of us are avid photographers too!

That in mind, do any of you guys add a few days to your trip to get some photography in??

TIA, I know it's a bit of an odd question...

It is not an odd question sir! Many people do this.

As above, not an odd question at all. My first trip was a hunt and then a sightseeing and photography trip afterwards.
It's very common and a very enjoyable way to make the most of your time in Africa.
I also carry a digital SLR when I'm hunting, not just to record a successful end to a stalk but also to shoot the flora and fauna and landscape of where I am.
It's also something I enjoy doing during the midday break before the afternoon hunt.
Just go and sit under a tree quietly and see what appears.

I take photos at every last turn, all times of day and night while I am traveling, hunting, fishing, hiking, etc.
So, I can't say I do extra days for just photography. Every day is for photography.

It's a given. My first to Namibia we had three days in Etosha NP, my second I got caught up chasing eland and skipped Etosha. My third trip, to RSA, I set up over a week travelling all over the cape from the coast to the Karoo taking pics along the way. This doesn't include just taking random shots during the hunt.

I think majority of the people here are into photography, documentation is necessary after a successful hunting.
