The moon rises over the Kenyan Savannah

Our moon is without a doubt the most admired and most dramatic of all things that anyone can experience on a night in the Kenyan savanna. Every memorable safari ends with a picture perfect moment of clouds drifting apart, allowing for the presence of the moon to slowly creep over the endless acacia dotted grasslands. 

This magnificent satellite in the sky has so many appearances; it shadows an eerie feeling to some yet a romantic allure for lovers, it is a calling for nocturnal wildlife to awaken and for the diurnal to sleep, it offers safety by softly lighting up the grass plains yet remains dark enough for the wandering predators to hunt, it pulls on the ocean tides to fall but pushes the coral reefs to spawn.... there are simply no words to describe the beauty of our moon when on safari in Wild Kenya.

The Unique Looking Guitar Fish

Guitar Fish resting on the sea bed One of the most interesting characteristics about the guitar fish is its unique body shape. It seemingly looks like a cross between a shark and a ray - with its flattened ray like head yet it has a long shark like body with dorsal fins - but this fish is actually a classification of its own and has about 50 subspecies.  The guitar fish prefers to remain tranquil on the sea bed, partly covering itself with sand to camouflage itself for any unsuspecting prey such as crabs or small fish that may come past it. Reaching sizes of approximately two meters in length, they are quite docile so can easily be approached by underwater photographers.
