All photo gears are now packed and I wonder if digital cameras Sony Alpha SLR will be up to the challenge of Southern Africa climatic conditions. I’m mostly worried about dust and sand (Kalahari, Etosha, Namib desert) more that about humidity (Okawango delta).

We carry with us the following material:

• 3 Sony Alpha DSLR cameras (A700, A350 and A100)
• 1 Sigma Zoom 50-500mm f/4-6.3
  
• 1 Sony 70-200 f/2.8 HSS
• 1 Sony 16-80mm f/3.5-4.5
• 1 Sony 35mm f/1.4 HSS
• 1 Sigma 30 f/1.4

and plenty of accessories such tripod, batteries, memory cards, cleaning material, charger, bean bag, etc… (not sure yet how I’ll pack my clothes in the suitcase which is already invaded by cables and boxes).

More to come…

During the coming months, these pages may not speak too much about technologies as we may be partially or even totally “unplugged” for days or even weeks.

The reason is a 55 days self-drive safari across Botswana, Namibia & South Africa and a day trip to the famous Victoria Falls. So, I’ll try to relate our experiences and publish some photos instead.

On the menu:

• Central Kalahari Game Reserve
• Okavango Delta
• Victoria Falls
• Chobe National Park
• BwaBwata National Park (ex. Caprivi Game Reserve)
• Etosha National Park
• Damaraland
• Cape Cross
• Sossusvlei area
• Fish River Canyon
• Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park

If you wish, feel free to post any useful information (location, coordinates, trips, etc..).

It’s not a vacation

It’s a process. A discovery
It’s a process of Self-discovery
A Journey brings us face to face with ourselves
A journey shows us not only the world,
but how we fit in it.
Does the person creates the journey, or does the journey create the person ?
The journey is life itself
Where will life take you?
