TDI07: The people of Uganda

This day in 2007:

20071107_Uganda_035

Uganda, Africa: After Lake Baringo, we crossed the boarder into Uganda. Through the countryside we passed many locals.  They were extremely friendly.  Some we passed quickly in truck, some we stopped and tried to talk too.  The last photo is the truck we travelled on – while we enjoyed our trip immensely, there is NO way we could recommend the company  At this stage all I will say is NEVER travel with Overland Club. Click through for more photos of Africa or Uganda.

TDI07: Birds

This day in 2007:

Lake Baringo, Kenya, Africa: Africa isn't just about wild animals so it was another early morning to go bird watching by boat on Lake Baringo. The combination of low light, a long lens and a rocking boat meant there were a few blurry photos. The photo of the Fishing Eagle is a sequence, though 5 shoots per second and 1/800 exposure were quite fast enough (full sequence on Flickr). Click through for more photos of Africa or Kenya.

Lake Naivasha, Kenya, Africa: We finally made it to Africa and on our home stretch back home. After leaving Nairobi, we camped at Lake Naivasha and when for a game walk in the early morning. My first real experience with my new lens. Some of the photos dont show the full picture so click through to go to Flickr or click through for more photos of Africa or Kenya.
