Photography is an impact or prowess of creating ease or moving pictures using a camera. It is based on the physical properties of reddened and requires high technology. Handicraft, on the other hand, is the prowess of making programme and decorative items completely by assistance or using ultimate tools. ...

Examples of this include vegetation carvings, steatite sculptures and assistance woven bags and baskets. It is not surprising thence that picturing has been for the more developed Hesperian countries while handicraft has been a prowess for the less developed countries like Kenya.

In this article, I will restrict the discussion to situations in the East individual game parks where majority of visitors (tourists) to these countries modify up in, thereby making the game tract a potential convergence saucer for african handicraft and photography. Visitors to these parks are not allowed to remove anything from the parks as exemplified by digit stern warning I recently saw at Lake Manyara Game Park in Tanzania. The visitors could, therefore, legally carry only photographs they had taken in the tract or some of the different vegetation and steatite carvings readily available at the gate. Is this enough?

To answer this question, digit needs to look at these two arts more critically:

- Individual Handicraft: The most common forms of sculptures in East continent generally represent human or animal form and in vegetation or soapstone. Wood carvings are more popular with the artisans because vegetation is found all over East continent different steatite which occurs only in Kisii, in Hesperian Kenya. In addition, vegetation being more malleable, offers less contest to the artificer who is equipped with basic and not rattling modern tools. But hornlike wood, with its tendency to fissure more easily than fleecy wood, attracts more experienced and better equipped artisans. Hardwood carvings, therefore, are not only more imperishable but should be of higher quality. With informed choice, therefore, a visitor to the tract crapper acquire vegetation carvings and steatite sculptures that are of high quality and rattling representative of the real thing. These come in some varieties,are unique and readly available. All are threesome dimensional in contrast to photography.

- Photography: A beatific photographer at a game tract crapper takes beatific ease and motion pictures using rattling portable equipment. But the pictures are not threesome dimensional and order more expensive equipment to create.

To a game tract visitor, therefore, individual Handicraft and picturing are like opposite ends of the same thing. Used in combination and finished correctly, the two arts work synergistically and should never compete with each other as they provide full and total satisfaction to the game tract visitors.
