Masai Mara — A Few Days, A Lot of Photos (Kenya Safari)

So… i went to Kenya.


More specifically, the Masai Mara and staying at Governors Camp
I’m not one for writing anything insightful here, so there’s nothing about the circle of life or how it was all somehow “life changing”………………… it was just really, really good.
Early starts, long drives, a fair bit of mud, some inappropriate jokes and a not insignificant number of photos of lions, cheetahs and the rest of the gang.


Here’s a selection of wildlife photography shots from a few days on safari in the Masai Mara, Kenya — no particular story, no deep meaning……………… just what we saw.

Oh and 1 from Lake Naivasha, guess which one?

Anyway… that’s the Masai Mara and a brief appearance from Lake Naivasha.
Maybe 1 or 2 life lessons, no big conclusion………… just a lot of very cool animals and some nice people too, in a very good place.
If I could, I’d go back tomorrow.


If you’re into wildlife photography, or thinking about a Kenya safari, it’s not a bad option.
