A break from my usual type of shots and a photograph that was actually taken over a year ago during my trip to Marrakech in Morocco.

It was just an off-hand shot that I didn't get round to processing for a while, then when I did, I really liked the black and white version. It was a simple shot to take, but getting to this location was not.

When exploring the souks near the Medina, you can pay for a guide who will show you around, take you to the best places and tell you lots of interesting facts.

On a side not, the winding souks mean that you can follow people with guides and not be readily noticed. Piecing together this two nuggets of information, you can probably guess what myself and Victoria did one morning. That's right, we followed a couple of people and their French-speaking guide!

Sadly, the maze-like nature of the souks also means that it's equally easy to lose people. I'm not exactly sure where the photo was taken or what this man was doing. Needless to say, we were so lost we eventually found our way 'out' after about an hour and then had to get a taxi to part of the city we recognised.

Thankfully the taxis are cheap and you just need to get the right one; petit and grande for those of you interested. The petite ones take you around the city and the grande ones take you longer distances.
