Fantastic Sunsets on the Masai Mara
A photographer has shared his stunning gallery of African sunrises and sunsets. Paul Goldstein says he has spent years trying to photograph the perfect beginning and ending of the Masai Mara day. Thanks to his role as guide for Exodus Travels, there have been countless opportunities to document the beautiful natural spectacle.
Wimbledon-based Paul explains: “Of all the thousands of images I have taken during sunrise and sunset around the world, 90% of them have been in two Mara Conservancies in Kenya – Olare and Mara North. The Masai Mara is well-known for having the best photographic light in the world, but these well-managed conservancies also have the best spots for sunrise and sunset and without crowds of people”.
Goldstein guides photographic safaris and expeditions for Exodus and is co-owner of the number one rated Kicheche Camps in Kenya.
