Lense Envy

We've done about a total of twelve game drives, I'm counting last nights boat ride as a game drive. And each time we've gone out with a new group there is at least one person who comments on my lense. Below is what I have been using on the game drives.

As I have said in a previous blog, I'm lucky to have parents who are photographers. I'm no pro, but I'm at least taking photos in manual mode and learning. It has given me the ability to take some awesome photos, as you have seen on the blog. ( also, I post more on Instagram @aushagirl, if you want to have a look (shameless plug, I know)). I usually get asked what my photo looks like and how much closer is my photo then theirs. One guy has told me I'm going to cost him a lot of money, cause now he wants a longer lense, if you're going to be using it go for it but if you won't use it often it's an expensive accessory.

Our first game drive at Chobe was actually a river boat ride. We came across two Buffalo just lounging in the river and a number of elephants playing in the river and on the riverbank. 

We saw many birds, and a crocodile! 

It was different then the regular vehicle drives. While on a boat you're constantly moving and are limited to where you go, mainly cause you'll bottom out and you don't want to have to swim in croc and hippo infested waters... You might not make it to shore.
