not long back from africa with a few pics to post.

 

hellbellys polarizer tip was spot on but i did struggle with it to begin with as the light was all over the place and with it knocking two f stops off my lens i got a fair share of blurred images

 

most of my pics in photobucket at the mo are fishing related and i need to put some of the non fishing one on, i'll do this soon.

 

i had to feel sorry for the locals as due to the british governments absurd knee jerk reaction to the trouble 800 miles from the coast put a ban on all charter flights to the country and no-one is making any money

 

i paid this dude for letting me take pictures of him and his camel

there is a double meaning in this pic as you can see the fishing boats coming in with the flags flying

 

this was named "les and tonys tree", it was right in front of the beach beds we nabbed for our days when we weren't out fishing

got to throw a fishing one in, although i caught 2 marlin and 10 sailfish plus sharks etc, this was my stand out fish of the holiday.

 

a 45kg giant trevally

i'll get a few more non-fishing ones on soon....

Unbearable, isn't it? The suffering of strangers, the agony of friends. There is a secret song at the center of the world, and its sound is like razors through flesh.

If you're being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They're trained for that.

there was a rock pool just in front of our tree and it was populated by amongst other things a snakepit of moray eels, just invented that collective noun, it seemed somehow appropriate.
