It has been a while since I entered anything in African Wednesday. The series I shot of these three farm boys while I was in Tanzania turned out to be some of my favorite shots of the time I spent there. I was on my way in to a Maasai church and these boys came down the path to see us. After I got some shots of them, they followed me into the church and we played some games during the service and I almost got them beat by some of the village elders because they were being disruptive.

7 World’s Continents Photo Challenge - Asian Sunday week #50 - winner announcement!
@rinawonderlands Asian Sunday entry:
This is one of a beautiful sunrise i had when i was in Gili Trawangan island, a small island near Lombok. No cars, no bike is allowed in this island. But unfortunately we can't go visit the island for a while now, since the earthquake hit Lombok last month. Many building were damaged, and all the people were evacuated from the island for their safety.

@bluebottlefilms Tuesday of Antarctica and World´s Oceans entry:
The way the light hits the ice in Antarctica can create some pretty unique colours. But when it’s overcast, often the icebergs can come across a beautiful vibrant blue that really stand out against there surroundings.

Houses of Ait-Ben-Haddou, Morocco
The ancient settlement Ait-Ben-Haddou has been a film set for many movies. The impressive mud-brick houses attract many tourists who are spending hours to get there from Marrakech. For me, the village was only a short taxi ride away from Ourzazate, where I was staying with an amazing Couchsurfing host.

Merzouga, Morocco.
Merzouga is a small Moroccan town in the Sahara Desert, near the Algerian border. It’s known as a gateway to Erg Chebbi, a huge expanse of sand dunes north of town. West of Merzouga, Dayet Srji is a seasonal salt lake that’s often dry in summer. Also shared on blog
marvelous...!...
Spring time has arrived here in South Africa and although the wind is still fairly fresh, it is just great to spend more time outside, soaking up the sun. I took this photo a couple of days ago when I went out running with my trail dog, Ghost.

Chobe National Park, Botswana.
Going on safari is so very nice. We did it all by our self in our own four wheel drive. So you have to find all the animals by yourself, no help from a guide or ranger.
This lion was well camouflaged, but we found him. Woohoo.
Tetouan, Morocco.
3th photo from my series.
It was one day Trip from Spain to Marocco.
We visited only this one city, and only historic part - only Media quarter. The weater was not cool, for the most of the time it rained.
What can I say more... I definitly have more photos from this city, so I will put more in the future. And Tetouan it's like a heaven for you - if you like architecture/reportage/street photography <3

The beautiful city of Tunis, Bizerte.. I found chance to visit this pretty city. The houses with white-blue colour is an icon of this city. And this place is bringing minds Venedik.. You can walk through the water line.
Douz Tunisia
Explore the Sahara desert in Tunisia on a camel trek at sunset from Douz. During this private tour, you will ride by camel in the dunes of Douz and climb to the top of the dune for a panoramic view of the desert. On the way back to Douz, you can stop to admire this beautiful view.
Wednesday is reserved for beautiful Continent of Africa and this photo is from South African Republic. We were there two years ago and on this day, when we were having breakfast in one of the lodges this photo was created. Breakfast and dinners in Africa taste different due to amazing atmosphere around them…

The Elephantine island stood at the border between Egypt and Nubia. It was an excellent defensive site for a city and its location made it a natural cargo transfer point for river trade.
Elephantine island was also a fort that stood just before the first cataract of the Nile.
