First Light Over the Mara

Maasai Mara, Kenya

A single hot air balloon drifts low over the Maasai Mara in the golden haze of early morning, its shadow trailing softly across the dew-covered grass below. One of those moments that reminds you why you got up before dawn.

After Descent

Maasai Mara, Kenya

The vast canopy of a hot air balloon deflates across the Maasai Mara after landing, its vivid stripes of red, yellow and blue collapsing slowly back to earth. Crew gather at the basket as the flight ends — the drama of the morning quietly folding itself away.

Lamu, Kenya

The Alleyway

Lamu, Kenya

The Long Way Round

Morocco

A lone figure on a donkey crosses the flat expanse of the Moroccan desert, dunes rising gently behind. Two small figures against an enormous sky — unhurried, purposeful, timeless.

At the Well

Morocco

Three saddled camels wait beside a stone well in the Moroccan desert, the surrounding landscape stripped back to bare earth and distant hills. A scene that feels lifted from another century — and probably is.
