The Photographic competition held by Gametrackers during 1999 resulted in many superb photographs of the region, but the highlight was a shot of a mokoro gliding through waterlilies through the lush Okavango Delta. Taken by Roland Largay, and judged by leading South African photographer Gerald Hind, this photograph will now become part of Gametrackers' photographic library. Entries in the 2000 photographic competition are now being accepted. You could win a complimentary 6 night holiday at Gametrackers in Botswana, subject to availability.
