Time flies

May and June have come and gone in the blink of an eye.

Some pictures from the past few months:

Camping out at the house that a colleague and his wife built in Jinja, Uganda

The view from their porch -- mere footsteps from the Nile

Field staff meeting. Check out the vintage Korean messenger bag!

 Another comparison photo, this time closer to harvest time: OAF (left) vs. non-OAF (right)


What I thought was a pretty flower is actually striga weed -- the enemy of maize

"Better Harvest"

Farmer leaders' meeting

Training in front of a farmer's shamba (homestead)

Kenyans are obsessed with washing their cars


A teaser for some upcoming photo orgies:
  • Lake Nakuru National Park -- rhinos, giraffes, lions, cheetahs, leopards!
  • Maasai Mara -- for the annual wildebeest migration from the Serengeti in Tanzania
  • Sipi Falls -- beautiful series of 3 waterfalls by Mount Elgon in Eastern Uganda

  1. Nice update, though it doesn't say much about the work you're doing and what it means to you... more of the context.
