    Great episode Mark .. I love the fog as I am a landscape/wildlife photographer also , the fog creates separation from cluttered backgrounds and creates mystery for the mind to think what is behind all the fog ! I agree with you on the animal sightings on bitumen roads with a paparazzi convoy on both sides of the poor animals .. which is personally for me not at all gratifying to witness or even contemplate photographing them at all ! Trying to avoid people is the challenge 😂😂😂🙈! Thanks for sharing your adventures , stay well !

    I am so enjoying your safaris Mark! With your mixture of stills and video.... do you have both your cameras preset and just quickly switch from still to video, depending on the situation? Thank you. Sue (Australia).

    • @MarkDumbleton
      @MarkDumbleton  4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi Sue, thank you so much for watching and for the comment. On my Nikon mirrorless camera, I’m able to switch between video and still with the flick of a button, so it’s incredibly easy to shoot both.

    Fantastic footage! How did you go about shooting from inside the vehicle in the rain? Rain cover, towels, umbrella?

    • @MarkDumbleton
      @MarkDumbleton  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Appreciate the comment Leighton. I actually just had the camera out in the rain, but when I brought it back inside the car I wiped it down with a towel. The inside of the car also got a bit wet though, but it’s worth it for the shots. You could also use a type of cover for the camera for some protection.

    You should be extremely proud of some of those images. I agree, sometimes a b&w conversion works really well and actually enhances the scene.
    Would appreciate your suggestions for a 5 day visit first time visit to Kruger in October.

    • @MarkDumbleton
      @MarkDumbleton  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Appreciate that a lot Stephen! I am proud of those images. In my opinion, for a first timer I would suggest 3 nights at Satara and 2 nights at Lower Sabie. Two incredible areas for good game viewing.

      Sorry to bother you again Mark but is April/May a good time to visit Kruger?

    • @MarkDumbleton
      @MarkDumbleton  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      No problem :) In my opinion there is no bad time to visit Kruger. In April / May you will have a great time. The bush is vastly different obviously from summer to winter, but all seasons offer something special.

      @@KatherineUribe-1 Casper has a white cousin too? If so, this might be him. The bit of rough on his nose doesn't look like recent sightings of Casper, does it? EDIT: yes, it is Casper, he has the same markings on the nose in another recent video.
