Gnomey's Pics

[evangilder]

Great stuff, Gnomey. I see you are putting the new camera to good use, and with nice results.

[Gnomey]

Cheers Eric, yeah the new camera is really welcome out here (which is why I got it in the first place).

[Gnomey]

Right quick update no pics but some news (will have pics up when I can). Just booked my flights to Australia today (going to see my brother who is working in Cairns and also to meet up with the rest of my family - and see Sydney and Singapore). Will take lots of pics of course and I will post some here but that will be August probably as I am going in July and then back here to South Africa for a couple of days then eventually back home...

Great shots, Gnomey. Air-to-air shots are always welcome, but the shots around Africa are outstanding.

[Wurger]

Hey Gnomey cool trip and wonderful pictures mate. I like the one with the hyaena the most.

I granted the sticky. I unstickied two of mine to make room. But boy the stickies are a little thick in the personal gallery.
