Lovely!
Whereabouts did you go in Tz?

I am hoping to go there again next year. Ours (mostly mine) are at http://tinyurl.com/mtbu4z but there are over 1500 of them as we just couldn't choose . The best ones are on days three through eight.

Thanks. We stayed in several places this time - Gibbs Farm and Udohtu (don't think I have spelt that right) were 2 but I can't remember the others. I ca look it up for you if you want. You only have 1500 pictures - I have 5500! I have many hours of work to do to choose the best Will look at yours now.

We selected 1500, from several thousand!

We stayed at Gibbs Farm too, We used it as our chill out base for a couple of days after the safari, as we didn't want to go to Zanzibar. Came home with lots of recipes from the chef there, and a couple of carvings from the wood carver - and lots of coffee of course!
We stayed at Olduvai and Ronjo.

I like the second shot.

I feel that your images need some contrast and maybe some saturation tweakin'. For me they jus' need some more vibrancy.

Glad to hear Gibb's Farm is still going strong. I was last there in 1983. I suspect it is rather different today.

G, You would be amazed. I was completely speechless when shown my "room". It took me 10 minutes to close all the blinds. It had an enormous bed, a separate bathroom area which consisted of a bath big enough to drown in, an open fire, an indoor shower, an outdoor shower!, a seating area for while the bath filled up and finally a toilet! I only used the indoor shower
