p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Two Years in Africa and South America w/captions


I have started (last September) the arduous task of scanning all of my negatives from a two year trip through Africa and South America in 2006 and 2007. I purchased the Epson v700 and each day I mange to scan about a roll of film in between free time or other work and I think I have another year or so to go at this pace.lol. Some of these scans area bit dirty but I tend to leave some dust and scratches in my files even when they are completely finished as I think that's part )not all) of the beauty of film, I think of it as the sound an old record gives. Here are a few random shots from those scans which I love. Feel free to check out some of my other travel work here:

More of my travel work





The birthday celebration in Lalibella for the patron saint St George . Ethiopia







As aprt of the a four day hike to Machu Picchu I met this family along the Lares Trail in Peru







Ethiopia. Remnants of the soviet invasion in the eighties. Stripped tanks are littered everywhere across the country







Hopping on a bus in Nicaragua I was sitting in the back and this young girl who was on her way home from school looked back as I was shooting out the window. Amazing country!







A young child I encountered near the Sudanese border.

This is NatGeo stuff. It would be nice to read the story behind each picture.

I also really like the photographs.
But having no information to go on except a choice of either of two continents greatly reduces my understanding and appreciation- and enjoyment- of the images.
Any chance you could at least include captions?

Nice work. 5 is a very strong photo IMO. The only thing that I think is off is the crop. Is that 16x9? 2x3 might be a better choice.

really observant/ I didn't notice until you mentioned it and measured it out, but it's 3.25x2. So odd but I must have cropped the scan (prescan) and cropped out some of the film itself.

meant to be slightly higher I assume.

Awesome pics. Please keep them coming. I lived in Ethiopia (Addis) in the late 80's to early 90's and was there when the communist government was toppled by rebels. Beautiful country/people and nice cool weather in the capital city.
