Masai Mara, Kenya · 12 – 22 August 2023
Savannah at dawn
Lionesses, elephants and hot-air balloons over the savannah: ten days on safari in the Masai Mara.
The story
How it went
In the Masai Mara, photography is an exercise in respect. We went out before dawn every day, watched without disturbing anything and only shot once the animal had forgotten about us. A lioness looked at us for two full minutes before lying down again. At the end, a Maasai elder let me take his portrait: I promised to send him the print.
