Seychelles - some famous endemics!

Well the first 4 days anyway! Visting Cousin Island on day 5 proved fatal for the camera. My 30D died after losing a fight with a tropical storm that came out of nowhere whilst on the island 'tour'. Despite spending hours trying to dry it out it never showed any further signs of life and is now the subject of ongoing discussions with Zurich Insurance. I took a few further shots with the Nikon Coolpix but couldnt be bothered to try digiscoping. UPDATE JUNE 2010 - those lovely people at Zurich contributed towards my new 7D ! :D
