The sisters. Ellie on the right and Shannon on the left, both Incredibly Photogenic, it's almost impossible to take a rough photo of them, although I have!

Have done some Photoshop work on both, for Ellie it was to try to disguise the fact that she was a little out of focus. ALso, irritantingly, the images were cropped quite a lot, as there were so many other people around, hence I have had to enlarge these a fair bit, which has not helped with the sharpness. But hey ho, the content is king, quality is Queen.

This is Fermoy, my once full time dog, now reserved for occasional holidays. LIke Dylan, Fermoy was a rescue from the local Dog's Trust and has developed into one of the most adorable and placid animals I have ever known.

I have a tonne of pictures of him, so am getting them together on Flickr.

This was madness. One incredibly chilly winter morning, I managed to get up and down to the seafront before sun rise.

A time for sadness and reflection...

Self Portrait in the Black and White Desert, Egypt.

The usual difficulties with setting up a timed self portrait shot only confounded by sand, flies and extreme heat.

I think it took at least 10 attempts to get this one right, mostly finding time to sit down in the right place in the right pose before 'click'. So overall happy with how it came out all things considering.

It was about 6am, so the other travellers were asleep still by the jeep. Was a group of 4 plus two guides and drivers,

 

City of Alexandria, Egypt - 3 Tearaways

IMG_3970.jpg
A series of images of 3 wonderful and 'forward' children. Some other photos of her and her friends can be seen here. At least the girl was. She spotted me as I was walking along the seafront and made it her task for the evening to get me to take photo's of her and her brothers. She loved the camera which is obvious.

it was so much fun, although I was little apprehensive at first, just because she was so confident. The mother wouldn't come any where near me, she didn't appear angry just kept her distance. She lightened up once I gave my camera to the girl so that she could run 50 yards up to show her mother the pictures on the digital screen, All made sense to her then I imagine.

Trusting my camera to 3 youngsters was not the most 'sensible' thing, not so much I was worried they would run off with it, far from it, just that they didnt seem to understand how valuable it was in terms of replacement value and that i had hundreds of photos still on it. But my trust paid of with some wonderful images.
