Bert - Mara and Lake Magadi - Big cats, hides and flamingos 2024

Spent ten days in the bush, in Mara and Lake Magadi. Ten days with only one focus: experiencing wildlife in its natural habitat and trying to capture it with the lens, going out early in the morning (like… waking up at 5.30 am), and later in the afternoon again. Photography and nothing else. Pure bliss. Ten days surrounded by genets, impalas, zebras, lions, leopards and of course the helicopter flight over Lake Magadi, with its Flamingos. In the evening into the night hides, setting the cameras correctly with the help of Ingrid, and then waiting for the first visitors. All surrounded by a carpet of buzzing and chirping and humming coming from an innumerable number of insects buzzing around. Had an amazing time in Kenya. Ten days off the grid. No phones or wifi, just enjoying nature and all the animals. Met old friends and made new friends, all great photographers who shared this journey. Thanks to Ingrid for leading this trip.
