2017-03-20: Monochrome Monday

Happy first day of Spring!  My goodness I am certainly happy to say that, and also very happy that it is finally starting to feel like winter has loosened its grip around here.  I’m at the point now where only 50% of my lawn is still cover in snow!

For today, I thought I would share a mixed bag of photos from my trip to East Africa.

Happy Monday all, and have a wonderful week!

A spooky tree that I think would be amazing to shoot with the stars in the background.  Fingers crossed I find some more spooky trees on my next trip.

2016-12-24: Photo Slideshow

Hi everyone!  I recently put together this photo slideshow for my photo club Christmas party, and thought I would share it here as well.

The photos are taken over the past three years, and there are several from each of my trips to Africa.

I hope you enjoy, Merry Christmas, and all the best for the coming year.

2016-09-25: What I've seen this week

I returned home Monday night from a fabulous trip to Uganda and Kenya.  While I’ve been spending the week trying to get back into my normal routine, I have had some time to edit a few photo from the trip.  There will be lots more of photos (and stories) over the coming weeks and months.  Here’s a sneak peak of what’s to come.

Enjoy your Sunday 🙂

When you’re as tall as a giraffe, there just isn’t an easy way to get a drink. It’s quite a sight to see though, and we timed passing by this giraffe just perfectly. I love the detail visible in the throat area, you just don’t see that when they are the right way up. Okavango Delta, April 2015
