You sure are some great photographer...I dont know if you saw my previous post, really late last night...

I mentioned that my son really enjoyed photography on his world trip, and his pics are really fantastic...he seems to have a knack for photography...

So he decided to take a course somewhere up in Seattle(I am not sure where)...hes really enjoying this class, and really finds photography a great hobby...

My dad was really interested in photography, and never went anywhere,(even to the corner store), unless at least one of his cameras went with...he always felt one never knew when a photo moment would come along...

However, tried as he might, he could never really interest me or my brother in it, except for taking pictures of our kids...

But my son really seems to be into it...I have boxes of my dads cameras, that he used, and then he even collected lots of very old cameras...

I am going to give those all to my son, as he may not actually use them, but it might be interesting for him to have those older cameras...

I must say, I was glad my son found himself so interested in Photography on his world trip, as he took what turned out to be boxes and boxes of photos, and had duplicates made for us...if we could not be on his trip, we can at least look through the pictures, and enjoy his trip second hand...

I envy your son, going on a world trip and taking beautiful pictures along the way. The kids and I are going to drive to Annapolis for the 4th of July to see my oldest son, and I'll be using backroads much of the way so I can take pictures.

This picture was taken yesterday afternoon in the same spot I took the first light picture last November

Thank you California
