DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY FOR VETERINARIANS Our guides then moved our vehicles between the lions and the unloading station for the passengers who were 75 yards away. Once in this blocking position our guides gave the pilot a thumbs-up, and the pilot rapidly unloaded and loaded passengers and their luggage After a quick unload and reload of passengers the pilot taxied right past us and took off It was a great experience to be so close to these large and beautiful lions, and also to watch the teamwork between the pilot and our guides. They are professionals and know what they are doing so that we have a fun and safe adventure. Since this experience occurred in Botswana I will stay in this country for the several articles to show how great an experience this country is for wildlife, a luxury safari, and outstanding guides and camp staff.
