Trip Summary

In 2022 Will captured an image in the Serengeti that would change his life. The photograph, Romance is Dead, went on to be highly commended at Wildlife Photographer of the Year and made the cover of their annual coffee table book, ensuring enquiries for safaris to the area he took the photo boomed.

‍Now, for the first time, he is able to offer a a trip to the ultimate big cat photography destination, where species density and rugged landscape combine to create a stunning image combination. At Ubuntu you will follow the migration herds, where lion and cheetah lie in wait to pick off the unfortunate stragglers and the rains begin to draw in, offering the chance for huge sky images with wildebeest covering the ground as far as the eye can see.

From here you will head to Namiri Plains and its famous rock kopjes, hoping to get those dynamic low angle lion shots as the Golden Boys (a coalition of three black maned males) use the rocks as view points, as do cheetah and leopard.

‍Aimed at all level of photographers there is no previous safari or camera experience required to join this trip.
