An African safari is arguably one of the most alluring and universally understood dreams of our time. Just the thought of an African safari evokes adventure, a journey through nature's grandest spectacle, a glimpse of the earth before man. Peter and Beverly Pickford's 'African Safari' is an exploration of everything the word safari conjures up, from journeys on horseback or by dugout canoe to the quiet drifting of a hot air balloon, the tension of silent waiting on foot, to the smell of dung, soil and the rain.
