- A view of the treeless,barren country along the southeast shores of Lake Turkana. Lava debris is omnipresent here,making walking a perfect misery. In dry weather,after the seasonal water pans and rock pools have dried up,the Turkana water their livestock at the lake.
- Awesome mountain ranges of volcanic origin surround the low-lying Suguta Valley,south of Lake Turkana. It is one of the hottest and most unpleasant corners of Kenya where midday temperatures rise to 1400 F in the shade - if you can find any
- A Turkana man drives his donkeys through lava fields as clouds gather above Mount Nyiru.
- Inhospitable,semi-arid,thorn scrub country northwest of Lodwar,the administrative centre of the Turkana people. All the hills and mountains are of volcanic origin. The tall flues of termite mounds dot the landscape; their colour shows the soil structure deep underground.
- Some of the lava flows from Telekis Volcano looking north to the southern end of Lake Turkana where the Nabuyatom cone is prominent. Named after Count Teleki, an Austrian nobleman, who led the first European expedition to the region in 1888.

- Semi-arid,thorn scrub country,littered with lava debris,near Parkati. Being extremely hot and dry,the area is only used by the nomadic Turkana for grazing goats and camels. No crops will grow there.

- Lava flows from Teleki's Volcano. Named after Count Teleki,an Austrian nobleman,who led the first European expedition to the region in 1888,the volcano last erupted in about 1895 - the only active volcano in the region at that time. Over centuries,each eruption ejected basaltic lava of a different colour. The flows in the foreground still look remarkably fresh.
- Semi arid thorn scrub best describes the vegetation of northern Samburuland where semi nomadic pastoralists eke out a living from an unforgiving land. The region is characterised by grand vistas, poor soil and an unreliable rainfall.
- In the late afternoon,Oryx beisa graze the stony plains near Buffalo Springs against a spectacular backdrop of mountains. The rugged outline of Warges Mountain (8,820 feet) rises in the far distance; nearer and to its left is a flat-topped mountain with a sheer rock face called Lololokwi or Ol doinyo Sabachi.
- At the southern end of Lake Turkana,just south of Von H_hnel Bay,lies a small,extremely alkaline lake which is fed from Lake Turkana underground. The colours of the water and the surrounding lava country can be vivid in certain light. Small flocks of lesser flamingos congregate here on rare occasions.
- The Suguta Valley is a low-lying area of salt pans,mud flats and volcanic cones surrounded by awesome mountain ranges. Once,a part of Lake Turkana,the place is one of the hottest and most unpleasant corners of Kenya,a hell-on-earth where midday temperatures can reach 1400 F in the shade. Nomadic Turkana herdsmen bring their livestock here for salt but they never stay long.
- South of Lake Turkana lies the Suguta Valley,the lowest and one of the most inhospitable place in Kenya. Vegetation is sparse and the area mainly uninhabited except for Turkana herdsmen and their goats. Most of the water there is too saline even for livestock to drink.
- Andrew's Volcano is situated on 'The Barrier' - a large volcanic uplift that separates Lake Turkana from the Suguta Valley (visible in the distance of this picture) to its south. This volcano is one of many dormant volcanos in the region. It last erupted in about 1895 but steam can still be seen issuing from nearby vents.
