Photography Tips

At Ndali Crater Lakes, shoot from above at sunrise when low mist fills the calderas with soft diffuse light. In Kibale use 70–200 mm f/2.8 for chimps and 400 mm for canopy birds. For Amabere Caves, a wide-angle with flash supplementation reveals the stalactite formations. Toro Kingdom cultural portraits suit a 85–135 mm focal length.
