The long Easter weekend found me in Marrakech and Morocco’s Atlas Mountains with my better half, Emiana. Most of the time she was in charge of our ‘main’ camera, a Nikon D70S (a few years old and we still love it!) ... However, I actually found myself in control of the Nikon while Emiana haggled with a snake charmer in Marrakech’s famous Place Jemaa el Fna.
