Spectacular photos, yet again. How in the world do you get those pictures of all the birds (and one lion) in mid-flight? I can hardly wait for the trip report, it looks like you had some wonderful sightings.

When Skimmer came onto the forum recently with such in depth knowledge and experience I thought, "Skimmer reminds me of Johan." But it never occurred to me you are one in the same. The timing should have been a clue to me.
Your bird photos are out of this world. All of them are just exceptional. Did you find the Doublemint twins? I'm not sure if that reference makes sense worldwide.
Now we need the tales behind these magnificent photos.
Come on back as Skimmer.

Wonderful photos, you should consider posting your shots on FredMiranda.com Nature and Wildlife forum. For others who do not know of this site it is great for pro and amateur photographers and there are pretty regular postings of African wildlife. I am not affiliated with the site, just an avid amateur nature photographer.

Superb images Johan!
(I replied also on the other forum.)
AND another Nikon user!
Apart from the D200, what was the other body you used?
I see you lugged around a CF tripod as well.............such dedication!
I have just ordered the f/2.8 300VR and can't wait to use it for Zambia.
Cheers

Incredible as always -- love the buffalo where the teeth are so visible. You always have shots that have just a little something more than most people. Looking forward to the report and glad you shared it here!

Johan,
Fantastic as always. All the photos were incredible but my favorites included the lilac breasted roller, the wild dogs playing, the lion in flight, the bat-eared fox, the spoonbill landing, the baby baboon and the baby elephant. By the way, was that flock a flock of carmine bee eaters?
Have you ever submitted any of your photos to National Geographic or Traveler?
Thanks again for brighting my day.
