Thread: First Kenya Animal Edits

I've been swamped since coming home from Kenya a month and a half ago, so I've just now had an opportunity to play with a few of the close to 20,000 pictures I took in Kenya.

Sharing a bunch. Will share more as they are completed.

1. Sunrise


2. Male lion in Samburu. This one has a tracking collar.


3. Lion's Paws.


4. Water Buffalo


5. Mama and baby Vervet Monkeys. Taken just outside our room in Samburu.


6. a cute little Dik Dik


7. Female lion in Samburu.


8. Cheetah


9. Superb Starling, common but beautiful bird.


10. Can't remember if I shared this one before, but I love this cheetah picture...and it is AMAZINGLY sharp at 100%. I plan on getting a very big canvas of this one.

Lovely photos. My favorites are the sunrise and the cheetahs. I would LOVE to visit Africa someday. What were your settings/gear for the sunrise shot?

Just Beautiful!!

wow these are amazing!!! I was wondering about these shots. I wasn't sure if I had missed a post or not. Thanks for sharing! What lens did you use for these? What was your settings for that last one? I have such a hard time getting things to look sharp at 100%.

ok i just saw your previous post.... nice lens! wow.... hope I can afford an L lens someday

AMAZING

Amber, these are gorgeous! They look like they're all out of National Geographic. You really have some some amazing captures here. That sunrise is fantastic. And the monkeys are so sweet! I don't think you shared the cheetah here, love it!

I love these, they are ALL amazing!

STUNNING!! Love the buffalo!
