I think this one I took in Rome back in 2014 is one of the best I have ever taken. The detail is great as I was able to get so close to the bird. This was taken on top of the tomb of the unknown in Rome Italy. Picture is huge!

Although not nearly up to PO8's photo, here's my dog enjoying the beach on the outer banks of NC a few years ago.

She told me those pictures were NEVER to see the light of day. [shrug...]

My last vacation photos were shot on film and printed on paper. That might be saying something.

Oak island NC, one of my favorite places on earth.







One of the highlights. Catching a small as hell wave on my 6-4 rocket fish board and proving to myself that I still got it.

Interesting perspective of this statue in Rome.


Lunch!

Is #1 "The Rape of the Sabine Women"?

That you don't take vacations any more, or just don't take pictures during them?

Ten years ago I finally got to drive across America. I had always wanted to do that.












This was the Shell Station from the 1971 movie Vanishing Point where Kowalski meets the bulldozers.

Looks like a fun trip. I think I can identify several of them:
#1 is the Cadillac Ranch west of Amarillo, TX.
#3 looks like the Grand Canyon (north side?).
#4 somewhere on US-66.
#5 is the Oak Alley Plantation in LA.

Toadstool Hoodoo, near Kanab, UT


Honeycomb Granary, Canyon of the Ancients, CO


Daughter in Spooky Slot Canyon, near Escalante UT


Mesa Arch, Canyonlands National Park, UT


And, of course, Upper Antelope Canyon, Navajo Nation, near Page AZ

Y'all are a bunch of fuckin' show-offs.

Yes, it was a fun and exhausting trip!

1. Yup!
2. Wigwam Village Motel—Route 66 Holbrook, AZ.
3. Yes, North Rim! Good eye!
4. Shea's Gas Station Museum—Route 66 Springfield, IL
5. Yes, Oak Alley Plantation, where Brad Pitt lived in Interview with the Vampire. Cripplingly humid, hence, me being passed out.
6. Cisco, UT.

A few I had on my computer


Isreal











KY Derby/Oaks




Masters Practice days






Cancun

This was taken over 10 years ago, but it could be from just about any year because we go to the same place and I spend my time doing the same things.
