Those two cheetahs look like they could be Smith and Smit brothers BluTuna
Lovely Korhaan pics and the ripples in the sand dunes
Gorgeous lady ostrich too

Great pics again!

At least we don't have to change film every 36 pictures!
Agreed

and after the 36 pictures you get home and find only two good ones

or the kiddies pulls out the film to see the photos

You Invention or not - still a good expression

I think it was about 120kms that morning, the roads in the south of the park are much better than the ones around Nossob and M-M.
We used to call them "Bone-Heads" but that was an insult to all the real Bone-Heads around the world

Not the Smith and Jones brothers?
I do not miss the days of film at all! All that fiddling about changing film and missing the action! I used to have 2 film camera bodies loaded with the same film so all I had to do was switch lenses but even that was a monumental PAIN! And as you say, not knowing what sort of results you have until they are processed - UGH!
If I took the amount of pictures on film that I take on my DSLR it would cost me more than the camera did each Kruger/KTP trip.

They were excellent sightings and we were having a superb trip. The Tourons were just a blip on the radar but as you'll see it turned into a large blip the next day.

The Cheetahs were almost close enough to touch, I've only been that close once or twice before!
The early morning and late afternoon light was sublime and the rest of the day was wonderful too
Couldn't agree more!

Oops, nearly missed you Pumbaa!
Those Black Korhaans, I had to be quick off the mark because as soon as I stopped they headed for the nearest bush and hid behind it!

Great stuff! Expensive taste in whiskey, those tourons!
