Thanks steve,
Today we were trying 2 capture animals in their natural setting n how they interact. Mai
mahiu has one of kenyas greatest escarpments abt 9kilometres long,we were playing wit
camera 2 c if we culd capture Gods handwriting in film.
You should also consider reading about the upcoming Wikiloves Monuments
photography competition at [2] below. If I may ask, I would really like to
hear of how the event at Mai Mahiu went, or rather what it involved.
Also see the Wikimedia media files repository at [3].
regards,
Stephen.
