Photographic Workshop

Workshop Dates: 18- 24 April 2010 and 10 – 16 November 2010 

Capture your wildlife experiences forever in beautiful Botswana at Khwai River Lodge, Eagle Island Camp and Savute Elephant Camp with acclaimed photographer, Heinrich van den Berg.

Highly acclaimed wildlife and nature photographer Heinrich van den Berg has travelled the world extensively in his bid to “tell a story in every picture”. He has climbed icy volcanoes in Chile, tracked endangered mountain gorillas in Rwanda, searched for rare chameleons in Madagascar, wandered through the sacred temples of Cambodia and now he is going to explore the Okavango Delta.

Eight fortunate guests can experience the adventure of a lifetime with Heinrich, whilst learning how to capture their wildlife experiences forever in a fresh, evocative way and to learn some of his boundary breaking photographic techniques.

Eagle Island Camp includes a 45 minute scenic helicopter flight of the magnificent game-rich Okavango Delta as part of our range of exclusive activities, and this will lend itself to breathtaking photographic opportunities from the air.

A bit more about Heinrich van den Berg

Heinrich van den Berg has photographed extensively in Southern Africa, capturing the elusive leopard in Kruger National Park, the desert elephant in Namibia’s Kaokoland, and the captivating birdlife of Botswana. The recipient of many awards, he was the first photographer to win the Eric Hoskings Award of the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year for two consecutive years, he won the international Camel Trophy photographic competition in 1998 and has done assignment photography for Getty Images, National Geographic, the Peaceparks Foundation, bhp Billiton and Discovery Communications. Since 2001 Van den Berg has published nine photographic wildlife books.
