Africa Flashback

I wanted to share some more of my old pictures, so I decided another flashback was in order. These are from a trip to Sierra Leone in the summer of 2009. I was there for almost a month helping a doctor treat fistulas; if you are interested in learning more about the program you can  visit http://www.westafricafistulafoundation.org/. This trip was one of the main reasons that I bought a dslr and got into photography. My equipment at the time included a Canon rebel XS, 18-55mm stock lens, and a 55-250mm Canon telephoto.   











This man obviously lacked attention to detail. You might say that maybe he can't read, but come on... someone even drew him a picture.

Collections of Reflections... and others






View from my apartment balcony after MD Anderson demolished one of their old building in the Med Center. You can watch a video of it here- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aEsGtlmVPGI 




 






LOL Cat

Lauren and I were looking at some of our old pictures tonight and came across this one... we couldn't help ourselves, we had to create a LOL Cat caption. Ohhh what have I stooped to.
