A few snaps from Mauritius

[DanFreemanPhoto]

Last day tomorrow here in Mauritius, unfortunately I was unlucky with the weather yesterday, it pissed it down in the evening when I got back to the hotel.

BUT....This evening I was really lucky and got a nice sunset

This job does have some perks it seems

The weather on day one:

But then......!

It still tried to rain again, got a nice rainbow though:

Most of the next shots were set around this pier, it made a nice foreground setting I thought.

These two got married today, thought this was a nice shot, didn't want to get any closer though lol!

Something different:

and the buffet!

Why I love my D3, ISO2000 handheld

Still one more day to go, not sure what I'll be up to photography wise. Hope to get some more decent ones

Thanks

What do you do for a living Dan?

lol why wanna swap?

I train on forensic equipment, UK based company, but we sell all over the world, so I travel to various places to do the training.

Thanks for the comments, I was lucky with the weather. Today was even better! Had an awesome day, spend half of it being shown around the island. Got some better pics too, really happy with them. Can't wait to get home to have a proper look, but right now I've got 90mins to kill at the airport until check-in opens

Oh well......

 

[Mr Pants]

Fantastic snaps, look like the sort of snaps you'd seen in brochures and such.

To add, Mauritius is an awesome place, kind of reminds me of the Dominican Republic, but nicer. Everything feels much safer, the people are all really friendly and nice. Lots to do and see, but not gimmicky or shitty like a holiday in Malaga or those types of 'family' holiday places.

Really recommend it for a holiday. I wish I was here for a few more days with all my camera gear

Chuffin 'ell. Looks amazing

 

[Malachi]

A few more from today:

This photo does not do this view justice, simply awesome! I felt like I was in the amazon rainforest!!

Taken from the car hence the reflection

Messing about in the car

and finally a nice sunset on the way back to the airport to end the day.

Still got a few more, I'll post them up later when I get a chance to go through them all properly.

 

[Malachi]

Lol, only at some hotels. I'm Mauritian myself, and my Dad goes there a lot on business.

Where did you go? I hope you went to see Trou aux Cerfs, Ile aux Cerfs, Le Morne and Chamarel.

I need a holiday after seeing those pics, looks stunning!
