On Film

I take a lot of pictures, a lot of pictures. When I was in Rome for just over two months last year I took well over 2000 pictures.
I've always taken pictures. I have piles and piles of blurry and slightly odd pictures taken by my childhood self.
I got a digital camera when I was 19 and loved it thoroughly until I got a new camera last summer.
I seem to have broken my new camera and the older one doesn't work for more than a few frames no matter how new the batteries are so I have been bereft for a little while.
I started looking back at some of my old film pictures.
I took a load of pictures with disposable cameras when I was in Burkina Faso in 2004.
While I love the grainy look of these pictures, I sort of wish they were clearer.
I do love them though.

Egypt

I've been trying to create some videos using old clips that I'd taken ages ago.
This is a collection of clips from a trip to Egypt in 2006- I can't quite believe it was 6 years ago
The music is sort of irrelevant
We went to Cairo, Luxor/karnak, Alexandria and Sharm El Sheikh and this is a bit of a mash up
