It goes without saying that our Smithsonian Journeys Experts are multi-talented. And many of them are fabulous photographers. We hope you enjoy this photo gallery, comprised of insightful, evocative, and engaging images taken on safari by Experts Kirt Kempter, Nel Grant, and Don Wilson. If a safari has always been on your "bucket list" you may want to join one of our safaris next year to experience it with one of our Experts...through the Smithsonian lens.
