Tunisia Photographs

Tunisia 2000 Photos

To complete my posts of content taken from our trip to Tunisia in 2000 I've managed to get some photographs taken on a Pentax 35mm camera converted to an electronic format. The images follow our camel ride to visit the troglodyes who still live in caves on the edge of the Sahara Desert and then the amazing ruins of El Djem. The videos posted over the last month or so covering footage from this trip are also available in my video archive. To view the Tunisia photographs click here now. Enjoy!!

El Djem

El Djem Movie

Heres another video edited from the footage taken in October 2000 whilst visiting Tunisia. This time the video shows the impressive ruins of the 3rd largest colosseum in the world. Built by the Romans but not in Rome, El Djem is probably the best example of the glorious Roman Empire outside of Rome. I think I also have some photographs of the ruins taken on a Pentax 35mm film camera somewhere. If I manage to find them and have time to convert them to a digital format I'll post them as an album. Click here to view El Djem or here to view my other video shot in Tunisia, Camel Convoy.

Camel Convoy



Finally I've posted some content to the video archive. It's nothing spectacular and definately won't win any oscars. Camel Convoy is a short film edited from footage taken on a trip to Tunisia in October 2000. I've not taken much care or time editing it so it's a little raw, the main purpose was to get something edited so that I could practice getting the compression mastered for web publishing. I think I've got the compression about right and hope the movie should play just as well on Windows machines as it does on my Mac. Let me know if you have any issues with playback. The quicktime movie is 5.3mb and runs for just 1 minute 52 seconds. Click on the thumbnail above or here to view Camel Convoy.
