100% of all money raised from sale ofall my art goes toward the extreme poor in isolated villages in Africa.

I will never forget taking this photograph, as I was standing waiting for the ferry to come. Anyone who has been to rural Africa will know that things runs on African time. That’s why I call them Last minute.com.

After three hours, these two guys came to me and said the ferry Had broke down on the other side, and that they would take me accross.

So I got in, with all my camera equipment and a very wet Interpreter, who fell into the water.
One the way accross I suddenly realised that the large boat coming straight towards us was the Ferry. It was so funny. The fishermen refused to take any payment, as they said it would bring good fortune to the, as they had a white man in their boat. they both recieved Jesus as Lord and Saviour. It was really a blessed boat trip.

    It is sad how they live….. at this century people have everything and they do not appreciate it, and on the other side of the world they have nothing and they are blessed. Good work, Good Luck to you,
