In a 5 day whirlwind, I went on an intensive photography course…in Africa….with National Geographic…and was accompanied by Jason Edwards, world renowned photographer.

Could it have gotten any better? Short answer is no, definitely not!

I was introduced into the world of photography and was taught first hand, how to use my newly purchased DSLR camera to its fullest potential by an elite; all with the stunning backdrop of Africa.

I flew across the scenic planes of the Mara in a hot air balloon, I ate Ostrich meat balls and crocodile, went on game drives alongside the Big Five all with thanks to National Geographic.

Now that I am back in the rat race I will take head on some of Jason Edwards’ very favourable advice; when times get tough, I will recall some of the moments I have been fortunate enough to have had in Africa…and best of all, I have some fantastic shots to prove it!
