I think you've selected the right focal length range for that subject and camera model. Possibly, available light might be an issue, based on another member's comment. You might want to consider a 'fast' back-up lens (f/2.8 or wider) if you have that option in the 50mm to 100mm range that can fit in a convenient pocket.


Yes, I should have mentioned that it can be quite dark in the jungle...

My wife and I were there in 2021. There can be a huge difference in the vegetation you will find with the gorilla family you are assigned to on any given day. Some could be more open vegetation and what we encountered was extremely dense vegetation where we could hardly see part of a gorilla 10 feet away. I used a 24-70 and was perfect for what we saw.

Very very nice. Their pink faces render them human or at least more expressive. Wonderful shots...could not pick out one I liked the best! Thankas.

You also don't want to miss the markets in local villages.
The people are wonderful and love to interact with respectful visitors. They never met a picture they didn't like!
Pick and choose what you realistically have time to do.
We spent 2 days--and wish we had more time.
Have a great time!

I agree, don't just do the cowboy/horse photography (of which plenty are available in Colorado, Wyoming, etc)
I don't know what town you are staying in but Goreme is the best place (in my opinion) to experience some of the most unique landscapes we have ever seen. Stay in one of the cave hotels, do the balloon rides, you can walk around to many of the fairy chimney areas on your own or book a local tour for a few days. It really is an amazing place!

So sorry your trip was shortened and I do hope that you both are well now.


Thank you very much

A great series of shots. #5 has a surprise look and #7 has that old man look.


I agree!
