For the 3rd year running, we decided to spend Christmas and New Year on a road trip, exploring from Zambia into the surrounding countries. It's mid-summer in southern Africa and we live in a very hot river valley, so we sought altitude to escape the [...]
When the season comes to a close each year, for me usually in early Nov, I step away from my cameras, my computer and enjoy time with my family for a while. In the fast-paced routine of the season, I select and edit images at [...]
