Faces from Kenya

 
  I travelled to Kenya this past March with my brother, his wife and two kids, and my mom. My mom is in her early 70's, but embraced the adventure to Kenya without reservation. Not even a full body rash caused by a reaction to Malaria pills kept her down! She's definitely a trooper!

     I had some amazing experiences while in Kenya. I visited primary schools and experienced how the African kids lived and learned. I witnessed two massive rain storms engulfing a clearing over the mountain ranges in Samburu, and I saw a pride of lions enjoying a water buffalo after a kill on the Massai Mara. There were so many great experiences to document. here are a few of my favourite portraits from my trip...

Nelson

     Nelson B.C. truly is a magical little town. I was born in Nelson 37 years ago but hadn't travelled back in over 30. I was excited when a couple of my good friends invited me for a trip there this past Summer. What a great place to escape the hectic life of Vancouver!

 Here's a few sights and a few faces I met while there...

CUBA



CUBA

It's been awhile since I've had a good street photo session. I guess I haven't felt the vibe lately in Van city. Usually a trip to a new country helps jump start the creative process.

I'd heard great things about Cuba and was excited  to see for myself what Cuba was all about.  Interesting people, vibrant colours, great music, and a unique cultural history all helped provide a great backdrop to photograph my experience.

Here's a small selection of my photos from Cuba...
