SLE&NHS expedition to France
In May 1972 the South London Entomological & Natural History Society (as it was then called, it's now the British ....) organized an expedition to France (around Le Havre) where we met up with some French entomologists for an enjoyable few days in the French countryside. By this time I was concentrating on photographing insects rather than collecting them. Here are some of the results.

East African inshore reef
These pictures were taken between 1965 and 1967 on the in-shore reef at Tanga - at the spring tides it is possible to walk directly onto the reef from the beach. They show a variety of marine life that might be encountered on such a walk. If you can help me identify any of the pictures more precisely, I would be most grateful!

Ugandan Pyralids
These pyralids were all taken in Uganda in 1964/5. Apologies for the size of the data labels - I had them printed locally and this was the smallest font the printer could do! These specimens were donated to the British Museum (Nat Hist) on my return to the UK. I don't know how reliable the identifications are (I don't think they were done by the BM!)
East African Natural History
These pictures were all taken in East Africa between 1964 and 1967. I've tried to be a bit selective and not put too many big game pictures in, because mostly these are just a small dot in the middle of lots of grass. However, I wasn't entirely successful.
Tanga Secondary School
These pictures were taken while I was a teacher at this school, between 1965 and 1967. During this period, the school moved from its old buildings in the middle of Tanga to a new site on the outskirts.

Tanga (mostly)
