Lesson 1:Turn your back on the Paparazzi

            It is great visiting Game Parks and seeing the animals in their natural habitat, but I have sometimes wondered what it must be like to be watched and photographed all the time. In some Game Parks when there is a kill or something of particular interest, numerous tourists seem to descend on the poor creatures and people argue over whether or not they can get a good shot but I wander how the animals feel?  Hence the title,  I admit I am guilty of photographing, otherwise you wouldn't see my shots here. I was lucky in this Game Park to be in one vehicle watching this mother and possibly two or three day old. If the Game Park is big enough the animals can, fortunately, get away and go where there are no paths, as is happening here - this mother had had enough of our intrusiveness.
