Me Petting A Friendly Warthog

The following photographs were taken while I was travelling in East Africa.  I will include excerpts from my travel journal...but for now, I think these images will capture the essence of my journey.  I spent time in three main areas:  Nairobi, the Masai Mara and Lamu.  Africa is a magical place to visit.  I was born there and can't wait to return there when I'm finished travelling in Europe.

Kite Surfers in the Far Distance

I took all of the photos below on a beach just outside the town of Rye.  I was there for the festival 'All Tomorrow's Parties' - which was fun, wild and very strange.  On a walk down to the local strand, my friends and I encountered an approaching storm and beautiful, shifting moods of light.
