“It was the wildest untouched Africa and it was magic” Jane Goodall Today we were privileged to have Rod Williams do his first f8 Pasadena Salon presentation and see the magic of his African safari images. In November he traveled to Tanzania, and the Ngorongoro Crater parks. The park is part of the larger Ngorongoro Conservation Area, where “Big Five” viewing is very good and a setting that is jaw-dropping beautiful. ‘Ngorongoro’, or ‘the Crater’ as it is well known, is one of the most beautiful places to be on safari in the whole of Africa! Lucky Rod and family. Armed with too many lenses, it was his visual intent to photographic the birds and, of course, the flora and fauna of the crater. In our meeting today, he reviewed his images with commentary on the trip itself and the locals he encountered. To many images to post so I used my editorial powers to keep the number reasonable. Below are just two examples of his "big game" visual shooting. And, of course, Rod's African birds whose names I can't remember,,,I just picked the pretty ones! Thanks, Rod for sharing your trip and images
Last, but not least, Rene recommended a movie called "Blurred Lines"....you can find it on Netflix. It 's a documentary on the world of art...though not specifically about photography.
