David, these are wonderful. I sent them on to our kids. It will be a lot easier for them than wading through my unedited photos and give them a sense of the trip.
Fabulous photographs! And what a treat for us to be able to view them. It looks like you had a wonderful time. Thanks for sharing.
Love them. Send one to OAT for their “Photography” Contest to win $300 of a future trip if your photo is selected for the year.
Beautiful photos of a beautiful trip; why I even brought a camera along is a wonder to me and everyone else, probably. I did so enjoy meeting you and Linda. Happy travels…
