Buffalo may not be as glamorous as other Big Five, but their strength and grit make for compelling photos on a Masai Mara photography tour. Shooting large herds with wide-angle lenses captures dramatic scenes of movement and dust, while elevated vantage points reveal herd structure and scale.
Close-ups show the ruggedness of their horns, scars, and intense eyes, conveying personality and wildness. Side lighting during early or late hours enhances texture and depth. Capturing buffalo in strong, front-on stances communicates their power. Including these striking animals enriches your Masai Mara photography tour packages—especially when exploring with expert trackers from Mara Siligi Camp—with raw, authentic wildlife portraits.
