I wonder whats next, child Blood Diamond trader photo gallery?

i saw similar at dreamworld, except your lions look tamer.

s*** dude that's awesome, I didn't realise you could get right up with the lions. Awesome pics, what sort of camera?

That looks like such an awesome trip. If you don't mind me asking, how much would a trip like that set you back? I've been saving up most of this year for an epic trip through europe which I leave for in a couple of weeks, but i've always been fascinated with africa. Perhaps that's next in line.

haha


yer, i wondered about dreamworlds insurance when they let their cats walk amongst all the big brother people

the dreamworld cats looked pretty pissed off;

what sort of camera?

DSLR of course.

Nice pics. I'd love to do that one day.

it's a Canon EOS 400D (according the exif)

How do you see the exif data?

i use this plugin for firefox - http://ted.mielczarek.org/code/mozilla/fxif/

but you can get standalone readers, or photoshop i think will do it

Wow doode that's awesome.

Thats awesome Wired.

Shots are really good :D

What cute pussy cats - awesome pics and makes me want to look into a trip to Africa.

lol, if the cheetah was the male,the leopard was female then as I always get the mixed up

It's hard to guess at the cost but I'd say about 20-30k (we did uk and germany before africa though) The african part was through intrepid, 90% of your food is paid for with them.

Depending on the photo it could either be mine or fiona's camera, a 400D or a 450D with either 18-55mm or 55-200mm lenses

holy s*** look at those fangs
