2002
Photos from 2002. It was an eventful year as I left Smallworld (now GE Network Solutions), where I'd worked for ten years, took a bit of time off, did lots of traveling, and started a new company Ten Sails. I visited 6 continents in 6 months (only missing Antarctica!). Highlights included my safari to Botswana, going to the World Cup Final (soccer) in Tokyo, and a trip to Slovenia for the wedding of my friends Nick and Dani.

Camera Test
3. Camera Test  (August 18-19, 2002)
I decided that I should upgraded my camera for my upcoming safari trip, and bought a Nikon 5700. In testing it though, I decided that I didn't like it as much us my trusty old Olympus UZ C2100. There are various shots comparing the two here.

Apologies to everyone there for taking so long to post these, and thanks to Adam for finally hassling me enough to get round to editing and uploading them!
