| Us Wildside Photography is a spin-off from what we love doing - travelling and taking photographs. We share passions for photography and nature, and aim to help increase awareness of the immense and fragile beauty of the world we live in. We always try to tread lightly and choose to travel fairly, using local operators and putting something back into the areas we visit. If beautiful places can pay for themselves through responsible tourism, then half the battle in conserving them for the future is already won. If you would also like to be involved in the conservation of the areas these photos came from, then follow the links on the gallery pages for more information. Although originally from Great Britain, we are now based in South Africa. Our Kit Our photographs have been taken using Canon camera bodies - EOS 500N, EOS 650, EOS 3 and an EOS 20D. Over the past ten years we have built up a family of Canon and Sigma lenses which are compatible with the bodies, ranging from a ×0.42 semi - fish eye attachment to a 170 - 500 mm. We sometimes use a Uniloc tripod with a ball-joint head, but aren't usually in a situation where you can use a tripod that easily and so do now make use of a Canon 100 - 400 mm Image Stabilised lens. All the earlier photographs were taken on print film (mainly Fuji) and scanned in using a flatbed scanner, but we now use a combination of digital and celluloid. We believe in capturing real images from the real world, and so unless otherwise stated, other than occasional cropping, none of the images has been digitally manipulated. The satisfaction is in seeing and capturing the beauty of the subject at the time. We hope you like our pictures.
