Jeremy Richards joined me on safari in May to explore the Emerald Season in South Luangwa. From his Instagram page and his website it's clear that he is an accomplished photographer who has travelled widely, though the Falklands and South Georgia are clear favourites! [...]
This year's rainy season could hardly have been more different from the last. 2023-24's rainfall was steady and fullsome, but it did not bring the intense flooding that we have seen in the last 5 rainy seasons. This was perhaps due to a long [...]
