PRESENTATION: BOTSWANA: FRED HAASER
Botswana is every photographers dream photo shoot for a Safari. While on safari you will be in a modified Toyota truck with full view of animals such an elephants, giraffes, hippopotamus, crocodiles, lions, gazelle, baboons, 500 species of colorful birds, and many other animals. From the top of the bed of the truck you will be within 20 to 30 feet of full grown lions with nothing between the animals and your camera lens. Out in the bush you’ll spend the night in canvas tents and travel perhaps 750 km during your journey. Photographing in Botswana is the trip of a lifetime.
