The illusive IMAGINARY VERSUS poptpop



So what you see here, ladies and gentlemen!, is the illusive African Imaginary PoptpoP. Seen in the while in Uganda, this kid is mimicking me taking his photo. I have no idea what he is holding but its not a camera. Another example how kids' imaginations are the best thing since torn bread.

Here is a detail of Imaginary Versus Kid (IVK):





Don't forget to send in your shots! I'm working on new stuff with the great news of that being that I am working in conjunction with The Inkling Network's Jamie and Tammy Harper to create a really freaking weird world. The magical world of Poptpop. I don't know when it will all be ready, but I have the highest of hopes. When it is all done there will be a place for you all to upload your images so you can do everything from one place!

Cheers for now

GO TAKE SOME FREAKING POPTPOPS AND SEND THEM TO ME OH MY GOD POPTPOPTPOPTPOPTPOP

Happy X-mas Chapati Stand in Jinja, Uganda POPTPOP!



A PoptpoP revolution is on the way! Prepare!

Until then, here is what I consider a pretty awesome poptpop. I'll tell you why:


  • It's in friggen Africa

  • It's at a friggen Chapati stand

  • That lens she's using friggen ridiculous and friggen long

  • That jumpsuit is friggen sweet

  • THE NAME OF THE CHAPATI STAND...is friggen...HAPPY X-MAS (the bujagali chapati stand)



A chapati, for your knowledge, is a flatbread (like a super thick, doughy crêpe, at least in size, and the fact that they have Nutella as an option), on which is placed all manner of delicious things. The one I ate every time was Chapati, Egg, Tomatoes, Cabbage, and topped off with Avocada....then it is rolled up and wrapped in like newspaper. At least out at Bujagali Falls.

This place was right outside of where I stayed in Bujagali (which is right outside of Jinja) and it was right on the Nile. Here is a picture from a few hundred meters from this place: (shot is over at Electric Lion).


So how's it going everyone? Lemme know! Send me your POPTPOPs TOO! (a better way to do that is coming, but for now EMAIL THEM TO ME.
