Pilanesberg National Park - Picture Gallery 2004
Galleries of pictures taken in Pilanesberg National Park the last 6 years
It took me the last 10 months to make galleries of pictures taken, so I haven't touched the last 10 months' pictures.
There are 41 000 pictures, most taken by me. You can pick any random day and see what you could see with me.
They are copyrighted and intellectual property, but are for sale - just mail.
With these older pics I used a hp Photosmart 620 with a 3x zoom till April, and later found out I could combine
digital and optical to zoom in at x 9,6. From August 04 I used a Canon A70 PowerShot till 21 Nov 05, when it packed up.

 Before this I didn't have a camera :) The cheapest digital at that stage cost about R4500 in 2003, about US$ 700 for a crappy 3x & 3x digital/optical - it was a ton of money, so I borrowed a digital from a German bloke. Years later he asked me to be the MC at his wedding, and we are still friends...
