Photographs by flash-light reveal Africa's wild night world—and the people who travel with it.
This book recreates the author’s night-time wildlife work, showing animals in their secret moments and explaining how flash-light photography shaped a new view of the wilderness.
The pages blend field storytelling with practical notes on taking pictures at night, using artificial light and long-distance photography. Readers follow a serious hunter-photographer across East Africa, from river banks to safari camps, and witness both the thrill of the hunt and the hazards of frontier life. The author also reflects on the Masai people, their fierce independence, and the impact of progress on their homeland."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
