A couple of months ago, I treated myself with an excursion into the only park within a capital city – Nairobi National Park. My friends and I did’t get to see the lions we were after but we did get to take in a lot of beauty during our game drive.

After a year’s break, the weekly wallpaper giveaway has made a comeback! After experiencing several cases of plagiarism, I decided to go on sabbatical and with the cases nearing conclusion, I’m happy to get back to sharing images of Africa’s beauty for personal enjoyment.

Elegant in their walk and majestic in posture, giraffes are just attractive to look at. And with unrivalled height, it’s not hard to spot one in the wild.

Burundi’s capital has the blessing of sitting on the shores of the world’s second deepest lake. Lake Tanganyika’s Bujumbura beaches are some of the best in inland Africa providing great spots for sun, sand and long exposures.

Nairobi’s beauty lurks behind every corner. It takes a keen eye to see it, and an adventurous leg to find it. Take Uhuru Park for example: it is no more than a clearing in a concrete jungle, yet presents countless beauty options, each calling on you to click away at them.

Bujumbura is Burundi’s commercial and administrative capital. Surrounded by rift valley hills on one side and Lake Tanganyika on the other, it is a pleasant town to tour. It’s main attraction – hands down – are the beautiful beaches, reputed to be some of the best inland in Africa.

This image from Turkana graces the 53rd issue of the African Screens Wallpaper Series. This means you can now have a different wallpaper for your device every week for a whole year! When the series started in June 2013, I thought it would be easy. I went through my library of images, selected about 80 that …

There’s a beauty that lies in examining your past; you get to see where you started off, recall lessons learnt and at many times appreciate the journey to the present.

Located west of Nairobi and east of Naivasha, Mt Longonot is a spectacle to behold as you cruise along the A104. It is thought to have last erupted in the 1860s and gets it’s name from the Maasai word oloonong’ot which translates into steep ridges or mountain of many spurs. Just by looking at it, you immediately …

Kenya has at many times been referred to as the World’s Safari Capital, with a number of prime options to spot wildlife roaming freely in its natural habitat. In today’s developing world where concrete is fast replacing anthills, steel outgrowing trees and cars surpassing animals, being in a Kenyan park is something to marvel about.

This week, I’d like to give you another take of my scary rooftop adventures – scary for me, delightful for you.

I have learnt to live my life the fearless way. Whatever I do, I do without fear, knowing I am more than a conqueror. Put me in a cage with a lion and I will stare it down to a kitty. Polar bear? I will show it why they make cute toys. One fear that I’m …

Welcome to this week’s wallpaper issue and karibu to Amboseli National Park. Kilimanjaro’s Royal Court and in my opinion, the best place to see elephants roaming freely, almost like they are on safari.

A very good day to you! This week’s wallpaper comes from the Athi 4 X 4 Challenge that was held in March. What stood out for me was the determination each driver had to conquer the obstacles in their way, no matter how impossible they looked to them and their machines. And when they did …

Hello and welcome to this week’s wallpaper! As we celebrate Easter, I’d like to share this image of a sunrise over Mt Kenya from Ol Pejeta Conservancy. May this new dawn remind you of Christ’s resurrection and reassure you that because you are in Christ and Christ in you, and since not even the grave could …

I hope your week is off to a good start. This week’s wallpaper comes at a time we in Kenya are reflecting on the state of security in our nation. There’s been bombings, shootings and threats of more to come. 

A good day to you! This week’s wallpaper sees us return to Kinale Forest near Kijabe along the A104. The image was shot during a #OnetouchLive trip to Lake Elementaita in under 10 degrees celsius. Fingers frozen to numb with warm air being blown into clasped palms to resuscitate them, we shot away at the …

Thank you for stopping by. This week’s wallpaper comes as I turn the first pages of my 37th calendar. This year, I hope to kiss more places with my photography and showcase what a blessed world we live in, as testified by this elephant we spotted in Amboseli during February’s #OnetouchLive expedition.

I hope you are doing well today. Minimalism is a style of photography that I truly love. Instead of filling my frame with the subject, I give it enough breathing space, especially when the surrounding is plain and free off clutter. It works very well with landscapes where you can have a little ground and …

I got to spend the best part of last week in Amboseli National Park with Onetouch. On the way there, we all marvelled at the clear view of Mt Kilimanjaro and were individually drooling at the thoughts of taking shots of it. When the drool run out, one of us asked our tour guide to …
