South Africa: Sun City & Kruger Park, October 2004
(Nikon D70, AF-S DX 12-24 f4G -with polariser most of the time- & Micro Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 only manual mode, so some exposure errors are expected)
Zürich airport to show begin and end of the trip
The Voortrekker monument in Pretoria
Sun city!
Outside of the slides, the large sand beached swimming pool generates every 2 minutes a gigantic wave.
Right at the elephants crossing route. They are specially thoughtful for their little ones. So you should make sure not doing any noise to irritate them.
If you do it by mistake, you may expect:
Some very angry elephants. And letting us know. We were truly scared.
We just stood very quiet and luckily she decided to go away
Ground hornbill
(fr. Grand Calao terrestre du sud)
The Olifant lodge
or waiting for the 20 zebras wandering some 100 m. from there (a hyeana was also waiting)
This and the followings are from the Matambeni bird hide near the Engelhard dam.
This is the best place we found to watch birds and other animals in Kruger! near Letaba
