Photography and Conservation Project in Kruger, South Africa

Volunteer on this amazing wildlife photography project in Kruger, South Africa. Develop your skills in taking beautiful shots whilst working alongside an important documentation project that focuses on the wildlife of wetland parks. The project is a unique opportunity to encounter some of Africa's most beautiful animals on a daily basis, improve your photography skills, and contribute to conservation efforts.

The project aims to create a database for educational purposes. As a volunteer, you will contribute to this goal by taking photos of as many wildlife species as possible. You will photograph large animals such as elephants, buffalos, rhinos, and leopards as well as smaller creatures such as chameleons, insects, and some of the 521 bird species.

You need enthusiasm for photography to join this project. Knowledge and experience are helpful, but not necessary as you will develop the necessary skills throughout the placement. You need to bring your own equipment. As a minimum, you should have an SLR digital camera with an 18-55 mm lens, battery charger, and a 100GB external hard drive. You also need to bring a tripod, laptop, and access to Lightroom for editing purposes.
