I thought this one was a little unique. It is an entire 360 degree panorama taken from the inside of a tree.
I was going to put a big ol Pano from Mexico as well but for some reason it just wont show up on my website! I'll put that one up soon.

From Liberia last spring. You can buy just about anything you need to survive in country here. Clothes, shoes, drugs, blood diamonds, diapers. And hey, if you're done with it, just chuck it into the trash heap right by where you bought your food.
(edit - I tried to make it bigger?)

tenesmus thats a neat photo. I recently thought about travelling to Liberia but wasn't sure about if it was a good idea or not. What was your experience, suggestions?

As far as Liberia, I'm not sure if this makes sense, but you kind of need a reason to want to go. Here is why I went
When we were there we were eating so much Jalla Rice and potato greens I was feeling mighty bloated. So we went for runs every day and kept seeing these smallish dogs all over. When you're in a place like Liberia you really don't want to get bit by a dog so you really notice them. One day we decided to vary our route and run along the beach. First thing I notice is some GIANT dog crap that I almost stepped in. Then I see another and another and my friend and I start looking for the big dogs. Then we looked up the beach and saw it was completely full of big 'ol Man Sized Turds. Then we realized that the beach was full of fully-grown men squatting in the sand taking their morning constitutional. Not cool.
After our run I was getting ready to get in the shower and realized there was this funky smell in my room. Sure enough, there was Man Crap on my shoes and I had to go out and pound it off them in the dirt. Uncool.
But you need to know there is amazing surfing in Liberia. We went half an hour out of town to these beaches that were basically uninhabited. No one near the water and great waves with really warm water. had the place to ourselves. And we didn't even go to the best surfing beaches on the north end of town.
A friend of mine went back a week or two ago to assess our program and see how it was working. They found the teams in Sierra Leon had trained another 4 teams and there were plans to make the wheelchair program national. The Monrivia Rehab Center was also doing well and one of the staff who had excellent potential had gone to Kenya to get an equivalent of a PT degree so he could go back home and do even more.
Anyway, there is much more to tell if you were really interested. Unique place yet very familiar to the Georgia boy who grew up as the white kid on the basketball bus.
