Africa has 54 countries in it. An African safari is a must do for the wildlife lover or just to see that place like this exists on our planet.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-size: medium; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\">When I first saw the Masai Mara, I could not believe that a place like this exists. Flat land as far as the eye can see full of grass. The animals are just grazing, and you suddenly chance up on them. It surprises you. You are not ready for it and ask where did they come from? The lion, the cheetah, the hippo, elephants, zebras, gazelles, impalas, vultures, hyenas, flamingos, buffalos, giraffes just coexisting. Yes, just like in The Lion King. It\u2019s true. A complete ecosystem, migrations back and forth between the Serengeti and the Mara every year on the clock. It\u2019s the circle of life and Hakuna Matata is not just a song but a way of life.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-size: medium; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\">I have been there a few and times and will go back. I am sharing a few photos from my trips there. It was wild to see the animals in their natural habitats.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-size: medium; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\">You will see all emotions here. Mothers love, the hunter and the hunted, the lazy and the always alert. All mixed in not far from each other.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-size: medium; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\">Photographing these creatures is a different ball game. First its luck. You need to be able to get to see the animal. Then you need to get the right light or the right moment and be lucky capture it correctly. Your breath stops and hopefully the camera correctly captures what you see. When it happens its magical.<\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"margin: 0in 0in 8pt; line-height: 18.4px; font-size: medium; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; caret-color: #000000; color: #000000;\">I hope these photos inspire you to travel and see our beautiful planet.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-aa92da2 e-grid e-con-boxed wpr-particle-no wpr-jarallax-no wpr-parallax-no wpr-sticky-section-no wpr-column-slider-no wpr-equal-height-no e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"aa92da2\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-07888a7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"07888a7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2560\" height=\"1707\" src=\"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-scaled.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-2451\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-scaled.jpg 2560w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Hide-and-Seek-600x400.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2560px) 100vw, 2560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a02026 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1a02026\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"2150\" height=\"1440\" src=\"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-1448\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004.jpg 2150w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004-1024x686.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004-1536x1029.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004-2048x1372.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/004-600x402.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2150px) 100vw, 2150px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When I first saw the Masai Mara, I could not believe that a place like this exists. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1875,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"elementor_header_footer","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2641","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2641","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2641"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2641\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2645,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2641\/revisions\/2645"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1875"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2641"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2641"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sgphotos.gallery\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2641"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
