If you exit Shingwedzi camp via the back (Southern) gate and immediately turn left towards the river, you end up in photography heaven. The sun rises in the river bed on one side of the causeway and set on the other side, still in the river bed. This means that if you are there early morning or late afternoon, you get the beautiful sweet light that photographers dream about. Combine that with a beautiful, open setting and a low viewing angle, and you are set up for some stunning photos. On past trips, it had happened that we go to “quickly” check what we see there, and we ended up sitting there for 2 or 3 hours!
On this trip we made a point to check it repeatedly, almost every morning and every evening and it never disappointed us.
On the last afternoon, there was a large Crocodile, lounging on the sand in very low light.
