Caption: Elephant family group from the air, Moremi
Game Reserve, Botswana. Photo: © Scotch Macaskill.
Camera: The photograph was taken with a Canon EOS film
camera and Canon EOS 80-200mm F2.8 lens, using slide film scanned
on a Nikon Coolscan V scanner.
Location: Botswana's Moremi Game Reserve, which
covers more than 4,000 km2, combines mopane woodland and acacia
forests, floodplains and lagoons. But it is the floodplains of the
Okavango Delta, one of the world’s largest inland water systems,
that have made this reserve world-renowned.
A safari to Moremi should ideally include an exploration of the
Delta's intricate waterways in a mokoro or dug-out canoe with a
knowledgeable local guide. Moremi is best visited in the dry season
and game viewing is at its peak from July to October, when seasonal
pans dry up and the wildlife concentrates on the permanent water.
