Various snaps

I say!

On the 4th January I posted a painting of the market. Here is a snap taken in the same market, from nearly the same point. Sadly, the market burnt down last March. It was a very vibrant and colourful place.


This next one is quite interesting, in my opinion. It was taken on the road to Lake Turkana, in Northern Kenya, on a six day 'Exodus'-type trip (where everyone sits on the back of a truck and watches the world go by). It is interesting because it shows that Mrs M, on the right, is the only one of the party contributing to the wood-gathering effort!


The following snap was taken on safari in the Luangwa Valley in Zambia. MM III to the right, watching some hippos on the far bank. Sadly, there are no black rhinos ('chipembele' in the local Nyanja language) there any more, even though the area was once famed for them.


L to R, Casper, Mrs M wearing her lovely Egyptian dress, and Farley.

Great photies again, Mingin! How come it's always the best places that burn down, eh? But great photies! Hotboy
