Training Wheels

Today I decided to take the training wheels off and go entirely manual for the first time with my camera. Mixed results, but definitely a marked improvement throughout the day. This is my personal favourite, though, as I was experimenting with various settings for macros. Last week, the rose in our garden was in full bloom, but it's just starting to turn.

The day itself began late after last night's exertions, and revolved around a trip to Kimironko market for the weekly shop. Wasn't able to get any photos this time as it was so busy that stopping for photos was a) difficult and b) ill-advised, as people don't always appreciate a photo-taking Muzungu forcing a camera in their faces. Returned with more food than I could carry, and cooked up some plantains, boiled then fried, with honey-glazed vegetables, habaneros, and some rice. Delicious.
