My main photo blog, being pictures of Berlin and sometimes elsewhere. I was born in Trinidad, and formerly worked for the BBC and ITV in England, and for TV in The Netherlands. Anyone may use my pictures for small-scale projects, no fee necessary. My other photo blog, a bit more personal about me is cjdphotoblogno2.tumblr.com

Deerfield, Kearny County, Kansas USA. The home town of an American friend I knew from Berlin. Also a cousin of mine married a guy from Garden City, not far away, who I visited at the same time. A reason for this area being famous, or notorious, was that an horrendous multiple murder occurred at Holcombe, which is in between Deerfield and Garden City. This was the basis of a book and two films made about the crime.
