More photos from www.UntamedOutbackImages.com

Some of you may remember that a few months ago I put up an entry dedicated entirely to the photographic wizardry of Allison Harvey - one of my co-passengers on the Ultimate Trans Africa trip. Her and her husband Spencer joined the truck in Nairobi in October, and stayed with us all the way up until we finished in Istanbul. After all the positive feedback and enquiries that stemmed from the last entry, I was more than happy to oblige Allison some more 'blog space'. The majority of the photos below were taken in Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Turkey, but all of Allison's photos from her trip through Africa, the Middle East AND New Zealand can be found at www.untamedoutbackimages.com

www.untamedoutbackimages.com - freelance photographers specialising in wildlife and nature photography.

Here are a select few photos taken en route by Allison Harvey - one of our co-passengers on our Ultimate Trans Africa overland trip. Allison and her husband, Spencer, joined our truck in Nairobi (Kenya) and will be coming all the way north to Istanbul (Turkey) with us. They actually started their Africa trip in Cape Town (South Africa) but came north to Nairobi with another overland company (Acacia).

Alli and Spence hail from Darwin (Australia) where they are both teachers; photography is a hobby passion of theirs, and I think it shows! If you're interested in what you see below, there's plenty more on their website at www.untamedoutbackimages.com. They're also doing their own blog of the trip at: harveysafricanadventures.blogspot.com

If you'd like to get in touch with Alison directly about what she does or possibly purchasing some of her photos, her email address is: info@untamedoutbackimages.com
