The cooler weather has arrived in Florida and I’m reminded of Africa. You see, on my first trip to South Africa was during winter (summer in America). And I took a photo of this lonely tree. I loved this tree, because it was standing in a field all alone.
Winter in Africa
And then, 5 months later, it became summer in Africa (winter in America). And I took a photo of that same, lonely tree.
Summer in Africa
Watching the seasons change is one of those simple pleasures in life. Watching them change in another country is even better!

Guidebooks are useful. I am not embarrassed to carry one around with me all day when I travel. Nor do I fear “looking like a tourist” when I’m reading one in the middle of a town square. I also do a lot of prior-trip planning by reading. Yes I can “wing it”, but a little destination research can lead to big payoffs. From the same guidebook that showed me the best bathroom view in the world, came the opportunity to spot koalas along the Great Ocean Road.

If you could only visit one country in the world, South Africa should be it, for a lot of reasons. But chief among them, is the opportunity to encounter wild animals. Take one look at my Lion Encounter at Pilanesberg National Park and you’ll see why. A trip to South Africa is not complete without a visit to a game reserve (golf cart safaris don’t count). Of course, you’ll want to document your experience with pictures, so here are 8 tips for taking envy-worthy photographs for your next game drive.

My adventure list originally included hiking up Uluru, Australia’s iconic landmark of The Outback. But a fellow traveler educated my then-ignorance of this sacred spot by sharing that climbing Uluru is insensitive and controversial.
Climbing Uluru
It is possible to climb Uluru. Weather permitting, visitors can park at the Mala Car Park on the western side of the rock and follow the trail to the summit. It is physically demanding, hot and slightly dangerous. It will close during high winds and hot temperatures. The sheer challenge of the climb begs you to try it out. At least until you learn why it’s inadvisable…

In the spirit of Landscape Photography and my Travel Photography Contest (which ends today, so enter now), I thought it would be appropriate to share with you how to take a picture of Uluru, the Australian Outback’s most famous landmark.
