VR Tour

These shots come from a trip to Botswana, with some shots from Johannesburg on the way in and Victoria Falls/Zimbabwe on the way out. These are the lesser shots, my personal favourites are on the Main Africa page.

Key places visited were Savuti Marsh, the Khwai river and Kwara camp on the Okavango Delta, and Chobe.

Vic Falls from the Air

Victoria Falls can only be seen fully from the air. Here in a helicopter I get some window reflection and could not complete a rectangle, but the falls are captured, with a few flaws due to motion.

Savuti by Day

The Savuti marsh by day. There is some wildlife you have to zoom in to see, but mostly this is just the expanse of the marsh.

Sundowners

At the end of the game driving day, there is the ritual of sundowners. Everybody gets out at sunset and wine and snacks are served, and the afternoon's activities discussed.
