About the Wildlife Photography Courses

The DPC photo safaris and excursions are designed to give you the best possible photographic experience. You will learn about the different elements that come together to make good wildlife photographic compositions. These courses are designed to optimise your photographic opportunities and to enable you to put your newly learned skills into practice.

You can expect a small, intimate group of photographers to ensure that you get the ultimate tutorship and guidance from an experienced wildlife photographer. Apart from offering you plenty of opportunities to sharpen your wildlife photography, you also get to enjoy nature and the company of other like-minded individuals.
