Joe Misika is a wildlife and landscape photographer based in Kasane who captures enthralling pictures of nature.

His objective is to showcase the beauty of Botswana’s fauna and flora, culture, people and also inspire other people to appreciate nature and art. The stunning photos he captures can beautifully adorn walls, cushions, calendars, screen savers and galleries.

He embarked on the photography journey in 2018 after spending more than a decade as a web developer. “I have always had an interest in photography being from a culture and wildlife rich area but never got started, I guess staying in Johannesburg might have had an effect on that,” he told Arts & Culture in an interview. Upon realising he was misplaced from his passion, he finally took the plunge in 2018 and bought his first camera. He began shooting pictures of people, wildlife and landscapes but he stated that his interest has always been nature photography.
