Half baked Africa photos
These are the photos I took, ordered (or maybe that's disordered) by
film roll. Minimal culling and polishing has been done. A few bad
scans, out of focus shots, and obvious duplicates have been removed.
Mostly though, they're pretty raw.
There are 1156 photos here. If you are looking for a couple
of quick peeks, this isn't the place. Go back to the
Africa home page, maybe take a look at the
Best of Sub-Saharan Africa.
Each image comes in 3 sizes: thumbmail, medium (no larger than 640x480), and
large (no larger than 1024x768). Click thumnails to get medium. Click
mediums to get large. If you want still larger images (for printing,
wallpaper, etc), send me an email.
Up until Kigoma, I was using two cameras. The main camera was Minolta
Maxxum 5 SLR. In the parks, I kept a 300mm zoom lens on the Minolta and
used a Cannon compact 35mm for the wide angle shots. The Cannon doesn't
really do telephoto so if you want to see how close the animals really
were, check the rolls shot with the compact.
Between Zanzibar and Kigoma, the Cannon was lost. So later photos were
done with the Minolta only.
"End Game" was shot with an Olympus compact I picked up at a pawn shop
in Pretoria. About 2/3 of those shots were out of focus.
Grrr. Only the clear shots are posted.
