Kenya


This Christmas holiday I went to Kenya. 
I took lots of fotographs of course, here are some of them. I used my zoom lense a lot while going on "Foto Safaris" with the car.

This was a lady on the side of the road close to Mombasa.


This was Salim who collected fresh coconuts in the mornings. 


My my mum is a pilot amongst other things, so one day me and her flew in a Cessna and the landscape was breathtaking.

THis was from the view of the Cessna, flying over Watamu on the coast of Kenya.



Closer to Malindi now, also from the Cessna.






Here we did a campfire by the sea, it was beautiful with the sunset.

THis is a "Tuc Tuc" which are basically three-wheeled vehicles that are taxis. I might use this fotograph for a painting as it looks interesting. I had left the shutter speed too slowly so there was too much light but I think it made an interesting effect.

These were two boys in the backstreets of Watamu. 



A crying girl by the side of the road.




Watamu.






This was really funny


I loved the graffitti on the house facades and the jumping boy infront of it made it even more intersting. Also in Watamu.



Watamu. THis is one of my favorite ones.

My brother learned how to climb a palm tree, hard to believe.


THis is a very dramatic shot of our beach on the last day, there was a thunderstorm and the colours were really gloomy and heavy. THis is not waht is usually looked like...
I will definitely use some of these fotographs for my exhibition as a "fotography" project, separate from the studio projects I've done.
