So glad that you're healed and are both now able to enjoy the adventure. Look forward to following on your blog. Really pleased that you were able to use the engine out of my original 'whitey' - feels like part of me is with you!

Just brilliant, :blob6:so very inspiring...those pics have made my day... probably some of the best photos I�ve seen on XT660.com... can you tell us what camera you were using please?

Brian if you look at the exif of the picture it tells you what camera was used.

In this case it is a Canon EOS 5 D Mark II

Great stuff, thanks for sharing your photos & story.

Yup... :tongue3: and worth more than my poor old XTX... Don't tell him that OK.. :Tongue_HKIM7O:

Thanks for the nice worlds!!!

The 5D is just a brilliant camera... a bit heavy for our setup but we're just doing this once I think :) and our old 20D was not filming so it was time for a costly upgrade.

For the levers you can search my thread "Tenere adventure preparation" you can find all the info there... they are form ebay... really cheapo and works just perfect.

Keep you guys posted to the trip.
A english post with Mauritania is coming pretty soon. (it depends on the internet which is starting to be pretty slow)

Has the camera in question got the new mark 2 smell sensor fitted as well cause I'm sure I got a wiff of that loooovely lookin food. Well not sure about the sheepy head thingy tho.:smilies0349:

Cracking photo of the little girl in green by the way - worthy of publishing in something like National Geographic etc.:icon_salut:
