SPECIAL ALBUM: MANA POOLS & LAKE KARIBA
IN THE RAINS
This
selection focuses on photographs taken in Mana and on Lake Kariba during the
rainy season (and one 'fixed point' pic to show the contrast with the dry season).
It's a spectacular time to be in the bush, even if a bit damp and soggy sometimes.
See more photos on Dick's Shutterpoint
web page. and on ZIM4x4's Facebook

Mouth in the rainy season, water everywhere, and wonderful birds...

storms over the Zambian hills
Brilliant
new grass, for the grazers to eat....
...blue
skies, the dry-season haze is gone, and crystal clear air...
All
photos by Dick and Sally Pitman, except where stated otherwise. Easy stuff to
get (except Kieran's spectacular lightning shot) - just a question of being
there at the right time! We can do it with you, but we'd prefer lodges and housboats
to tents and catamarans at this time of year!
