A selection of the pictures I took on the trip. Click on the thumbnail to open a larger picture in a new window. Please accept the photos for what they are; an honest record of my trip. They were taken with a FujiFilm FinePix S7000 digital camera, with a wide-angle lense and tripod being used occasionally. Most of the photos with me in them were taken using a 10 second timer, and often running like hell!
