The Samoa Tsunami: Photos and a personal account.

The Samoa Tsunami: Photos and a personal account.
I was in American Samoa on Ofu Island when the Tsunami hit. It was one of the most humbling and terrifying things I've ever witnessed. Fortunately, Ofu received minimal damage. Four days after the disaster we were able to make our way over to Lalomanu beach in Independent Samoa where we had stayed previously. The destruction was overwhelming. The survivor stories even more so. Here are photographs from Lalomanu Beach and the stories of some of the survivors. http://www.michaelandersongallery.com/gallery.php?gallery=samoatsunami

To help the survivors, you can go directly to the websites of the families involved: http://www.samoabeachfales.com/ or http://tinadesuza.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html more ยป more »

Visual Reports from Burkina Faso & Mali...

Besides wonderful Moroccan food, the odd cold beer, 0 km cycling days, cruising around the walled medina, thinking about plans for the European (and last) leg of the WT-Expedition, I'm enjoying superfast internet here in Essaouira on central Morrocco's Atlantic coast, and thus, I've made some new photo albums for you (and me too).

As always, I recommend you click the 4-arrow icon in the lower right hand corner of the album itself, to view the photos full-screen, with the text box activated. Choice is yours.


1. Slideshow from Burkina Faso (95 photos)

2. Slideshow from Mali (100 photos)


You can also see the photos on Flickr (Burkina Faso pi... more »

Creating a website for photos

Hello all

This probably has been asked a thousand times but my search function is not working properly (i think!).

I want to create a website that is mainly to be used to show my photos. I have a blog for many years but my html is not that great! There are also too many sites that offer personal websites which means i have no clue as to what i should do/ which ones are ok/ which ones are great.

Any info would be great!

Thank you!

Photos from Berlin 1989

20 years ago, the Berlin wall was opened and a million people crossed in one weekend.

A few pictures I took at the time: Opening of the Berlin wall.

Quite annoyingly, I have since lost the camera that I took the pictures with, a soviet-built Zorki that my grandfather brought when he fled from eastern Germany in 1956. The Zorki is a purely mechanical camera that does not use batteries.
