“This excellent guide is full of practical tips on camera equipment, information on the various regions in the park and its lovely waterholes, even including where to park your vehicle to get the best light on your subject and therefore the best possible images.
All the waterholes are covered, indicated as morning or afternoon sites, including images of each waterhole, what to look out for when approaching the waterhole and which animals you can expect to find there. The authors have also included their recommended drives, both morning and afternoon, from each of the camps or lodges in the Park.
And the 17 Photographic Lessons -¯from ‘Patience and Preparation’ to the final one, ‘Photographing at Night from the Camps’ - are little gold nuggets scattered throughout this lovely Guide.
This eBook will be extremely useful for a wide spectrum of photography enthusiasts, from beginners to even professional photographers.”

"I can highly recommend Mario and Jenny's photographic guide to the Kgalagadi.
Having a passion for the region myself and having had to learn about all the dynamics, waterholes and ideal routes to drive over a period of 6 years - I wish I had this guide on my first trip already!
They pay careful attention to the fall of light on waterholes and game drive routes, the historic species sighted at various waterholes and the total immersive experience that is photography in the Kgalagadi - with some useful photo tips thrown in the mix to keep things interesting.
If you are planning to visit the Kgalagadi in the future, this guide will be an invaluable tool to have on your mobile device or tablet for easy reference and daily game viewing planning."

"I found The Photographer's Guide to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park a “must have” for planning my trip and believe regular visitors to the park will also find it invaluable for future trips. The book is packed with knowledge that can be applied to other parks, safaris and wildlife excursions via the photography lessons and additional advice for photographers.
There is SO much information to process that I would recommend you read the book end to end and the next time you go to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, decide which area/s to visit and then study the relevant sections pragmatically.
The book gives you ample information and guidance, which if followed, would help you in your photography and sightings, enabling you to get some awesome shots.
The 300 page book is structured and the layout easy to read. I read the book on my tablet so rest assured that you can take this book anywhere on mobile devices.
I have not been able to find a similar or equivalent book on the Kgalagadi which is so comprehensive as The Photographer’s Guide to the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park.
Enjoy the read and the photographs - it's an amazing experience by amazing people!”
