Somehow I can't stop dreaming about the wild places of Africa. I am happiest when standing on top of a Land Rover, photographing desert, bushveld or beach. Writing is difficult for me. I can't seem to find the words to convey the essence of African wilderness - or the whiff of boerewors on a lonely braai.
I used to work fulltime for Getaway as a photojournalist, but found that even two weeks in the office is enough time for dust to gather on my camera kit. So now I look for any excuse as a freelancer to travel continuously to the remote areas of the continent. I prefer to focus on conservation and how everyone can benefit from the retention and protection of natural Africa. |

Given the vanishing of tourists and destitute lodges, it was surprising to come across the fantastic Masumu River Lodge a few kms outside Binga. I needed to find a place to sleep for the night,...
No trip to Zimbabwe is complete without a trip to Lake Kariba (or Dam Kariba, technically, as it's a man-made body of water). So after Imbabala, I headed back east again, through Vic Falls, and...
A big attraction of going to Imbabala Zambezi Safari Lodge is its proximity to Chobe National Park in Botswana, which has probably the largest concentration of elephant anywhere in Africa.

A pack of wild dogs is starting to hunt a kudu bull ON the road. The kudu is panicking and at one stage the driver has to hit the hooter to stop the kudu from crashing into the car.
Zimbabwe: Up river to Imbabala Safari Lodge
Multimedia: Images, Audio, Video Published: 23 February 10
Imbabala was one of the first "photographic safari" lodges built on this part of the Zambezi, back in 1987. It's set back about 100 metres from the river, with views of the floodplain.
