Shave o'clock


















I have always said that I would love to have an old barber shop style shave, this was my chance. He didn't speak any English and I don't speak French but we got a long just fine,

I had to pay for this one...


















Look at those cool glasses. I wanted to talk to this lady, but we had a slight language barrier. I tried, but no.

Happy fella

















This poor guy just stands around all day waiting for tourists like me to take photos and then give him money. I have somehow made this photo of a very busy city, namely Marrakesh, look not so busy.

Islamic Barbie

















If had more money, I would of bought at least one.

Sofian, Me and camel

















I like this photo, even though I was totally against the idea of getting on a camel from day one. That hypnotic Muhamed talked me in to that in less than ten seconds. He was quicker than quicksand.

Street Lurkers

















Street kids in a little hippie village named Taghazout, They were really curious about me and my camera.

View form a bus



















We arrive at the bus station, and a sketchy guide helps me buy tickets and points us in the right direction, tells me the bus number and we board the bus. The bus leaves. After an hour the ticket inspector comes and acts like we have the wrong tickets, we couldn't communicate and he shouted a lot. He then shouted some more, I just sat there and did nothing. we got to our stop, he dropped us off on the motorway. I can't help but think, that the normal bus route would drop tourists off at the beach and not the side of a busy road.

Chicken Nuggets

















These 2 hardworking chaps are sitting down on the side of the street trying to sell their four live chickens.

Old Fella

















I was walking and keeping my eyes on the road. I took this shot without looking so i wouldn't get caught. I got caught the next day.

Siesta


















Well I can only assume it was time for his siesta, It was kinda early on in the day for a nap though.

Little Fella

















He just wanted to show me his cat handling skills, which i must say are pretty careful and well planned here. The little fella was found hanging out with a lot of cats in this Medina in a city called Essaoiura. I liked that place.

A Seagull

















Our first full day in Morocco, and yes the sky was this beautiful. I am really liking this seagull shot, admittedly ( like most people) i really don't like seagulls. But i do kinda like taking photos of them.
