I have just completed another special interest group that goes around Sabah for 12 days with 18 person.
Mt. Kinabalu from air over to Sandakan with my new D300 Nikon ISO 400 , 70-300mm VR
Kinabalu Park, Mesilau, Poring Hot Springs, Sandakan Sepilok, Sukau, Keningau, Tenom and of course Kota Kinabalu city. The group mostly comes from Australia and a few from UK.
