A small selection of my videos, mostly shot hand-held with a small Canon HFR (sadly, my cherished Canon 30D has no video capability). They include a series of four videos I created some years ago to show Mana at various times of year, from the lushness of the “Green Season” to the dust and heat of October; and finally Boswell, Matusadona, and some brief video clips of mine that you might enjoy.

Some random clips from my video library (of somewhat varying technical quality but you might enjoy them anyway). Here’s Boswell giving himself a shower – his left tusk still unbroken at the time…:

A plover gets a surprise at Long Pool, possibly having mistaken “croc” for “rock”…:

...We wouldn’t do a thing like that, would we! We’re much too lazy….
