He pulled his cotton polo over his head, the material open and aerated, the sandy color all working to help him keep cool in the scorching Savannah heat. One corner got caught in his sagging denims that he pulled and smoothed out before turning around, looking in a frantic but eased motion around the tent. He ignored the body laying on the low cot, his lips pursing together as his pale eyes still swam looking for a particular object.

Pursing his lips, he stopped moving, his head rocking from side to side as he tried to go over something in his mind, as if running through events in his head before a light seemed to shine from his face. "Ah ha!" He grinned and dove down, reaching under a pile of thrown clothes grinning as a heavy black bag came up, clothes slipping from its sides as he pulled it up to a small table.

Carefully, quietly, unzipping the top flap he pulled out a camera with an almost delicate care, his hands worshipful in how he removed one lens and attached another. Long fingers sliding over the mechanical object he then carefully slipped the strap over his neck, moving to take the bag and sling it across one shoulder and rest diagonally on the opposing hip.

Nearly ready. Sitting on the open cot, Shae Bentley bent over and pulled on the boots, tan and solid, perfect for trekking in this sort of terrain. Leaving them unlaced he stood again, going over to grab a hat, a ridiculous present from his brother. He looked nothing less then a prat in the hat, but he loved it. Putting the safari hat on, he moved back to lace up his boots, careful with his camera, letting it sit gingerly on his thigh.

Once laced up, Bentley stood, tipped his hat down over his curls and grinned lazy, putting fisted hands on his hips, fairly certain he was ready for his day.
