Caption: This is the second in a series on an analog photography trip to Botswana, Africa in a digital age. It was a very enjoyable,,productive trip and encouraged me in a return to film photography. An effective photography medium that relates to the viewer not only what is in front of the camera, but also that which is behind the camera as well.

It convinced me of the continuing relevance of film photography and of the deep cerebral aspects of travel. No matter if you don't have the latest digital camera. Just pick up your old film camera and a few rolls of film and get out there and shoot!!
