When I was a lot younger, I watched wildlife programs on the BBC.  There was a film maker that was on my local BBC region called Simon King.  He graduated to working in the Maasai Mara where he was on with another photographer and film maker who had been there for many years.  His name is Jonathan Scott.  He still lives in Kenya and, with his wife Angela who is also a photographer, can be seen out and about in the Mara covering the animals.  I was really pleased when we came across the pair of them.  He was driving their Land Rover with his wife in the back shooting out the side.  He had a camera mounted close but too.  I waved at him at one point and he smiled and waved back.  Had a bit of a fanboy moment!
