Hi all - this is my final 'Through My Lens' for Ethiopia. Last week I shared my photos from the Simien Mountains. This week I've headed south to Bahir Dar. Bahir Dar is a town on the shores of Lake Tana, and the jumping off point for visiting the Blue Nile Falls. It was done …

Howdy all. Another selection of photos for you, basically a selection of photos of my trek in Ethiopia's Simien Mountains. We began in Debark, took a minibus to Sanakabar Camp at the start of the first day, loaded up donkeys there and began the trek. We averaged around 20km a day, staying at three camps. …

Located in the north-east of Ethiopia, Gondar is an interesting town with its own castle Fasilides Castle, founded by the Emperor of the same name who founded both the castle and the town. The town was founded in 1635. The castle is interesting because it is strangely European in style and there are some large …
Howdy all! Hope you're week has started well. Today I bring you a video I shot in Senegal when I was there nearly 10 years ago now! I visit the capital Dakar, Isle de Goree and Saint Louis. Enjoy! Thanks for visiting - May the Journey Never End!

Well. Here it is - my last post before I jet off to South America on Sunday morning. I'm back with another photographic journey (as far as my camera skills will let me) to the land-locked West African country of Niger. A mostly desert country, Niger is probably the most remote country I've ever visited. …
2006 saw me tackle West Africa for the first time. I had such plans for staying around a month in Ghana, but for some reason I wasn't in the right frame of mind when I was there. I was overwhelmed by the place to be honest, which hasn't happened to me very often. I stayed …
Hi folks! Hope this photo finds you well. For a little while I've decided to specifically put up photos of myself on Friday. I was once told that the only problem with my travel photos was that they didn't include me! I always rationalised that by saying that I know what I look like, and …
Warning! Your heart is about to melt when you see these faces! Mali is a dry dry country in West Africa. I visited quite a few years ago now - seems hardly possible it was so long ago - and visited the Dogon country, Mopti, Segou, Djenne, and the capital Bamako. So here is a …
