Looks to me like they're bogged in the mud and are trying to free that front wheel.

But that's just my opinion.

Obviously, it is camouflaged to become invisible in a herd of zebras :lol:

You may laugh, but disguising things as zebras was quite the fashion in British and German East, back in the day:

Must be something genetic, then. I remember owning a Playmobil safari jeep, on which I painted black stripes with a marker to give it that unique zebra look.

Now I have to build a plane and automobile fleet for my film crew :)

And ESPECIALLY, I'll have to build that "Congorilla" wagon :lol:

Seriously, Now I am considering building a camera to mount in one of my Crossleys. I'm enjoying all these pics!

Wow. Lovely. Where were these taken, do you know? Some of those warriors' headresses and shields have a Kipsigis look about them. Is that what they are?

Sorry, Plynkes.  Now I can't find the original page I pulled it from! I think it's one of those times when, each time you do a search, it pulls up a slightly different combination of results.  If I find it again, I'll let you know but it's probably an ambiguous caption, anyway, like 'East Africa, 19**'.

Here's some more...

Cameras and equipment











Generator



Another car



Tea time!



On the hunt!



One more batch to come.  More on the plane(s)!
