David works on his photographs every spare moment he can. These wildlife images were taken in Kenya at Samburu and the Masai Mara. They give a sense of beauty of the wildlife in those areas.

Web Update


I'm always delighted when our daughter Elizabeth, updates our website. We have our website as our 'default page' so we view it as we open up the 'web' see our site. When we have new pics and articles it's rather fun!

Please go into the site to view our 2011 workshops, weekends and tour, plus some itineraries. Of course we also add new photos for interest. Here is one of David and I communing with the penguins in Antarctica. Thank goodness for 'time exposures'.

Launch




We had a great launch of the 2011 programme at the Rand Club. Together with Allaboutwriting we had over 100 guests which added to the atmosphere of the evening.

First Sighting and Adamaster were some of the delectable wines tasted in the magnificent bar before the presentations.

Once we were seated Richard and Jo-Anne discussed the merits and challenges readers and publishers face now due to the ease of purchase and possible pirating of already published works. Fascinating thoughts to ponder,

David and I presented the 2011 programme and several other short audio visuals which included Antarctica, the Tango and a cheetah hunt in the Masai Mara.

It was wonderful to meet old friends who have supported Creative Escapes for many years. Hopefully 2011 will be another exciting travel year.
