About jozi1

I am an amateur photographer and mostly photograph wildlife and have a special love for big cats and birds.I am self taught and have never attended a course in photography.I exclusively photograph animals in the WILD which is always challenging! I use only canon equipment and now have 7d and t3i camera`s and use canon 70-200mm f 2.8 and 100-400mm canon f 5.6 lenses.On my recent trip to Africa I rented a 500mm f 4.0 lens which was fun to use!

    Thanks David,it was taken from tree house room at ulusaba which overlooks the dam,but the hippos were on the on the far side, but there was a ledge to rest the camera and lenses hence no need for a tripod!
