You lift off from Zanzibar as the island falls away beneath you, and by the time the plane touches down at Mikumi Airstrip the Mkata Plains have already begun to spread like a wild, breathing map.

A professional wildlife photographer rides with you, eyes trained to find the moment when light, animal and motion align.
