We have worked our way up to visiting India, a vast, intimidating place for outside visitors, but also full of fascinating experiences, rich cultures, and of course, the unexpected.
One of the things I admire most about India is its utter frankness and inability to dissemble. India is what it is, all mass of humanity, colorful celebrations, crowded buses, dirty streets, polished temples, lonely beggars, spicy food, and hazy landscapes, and we are here to see it all.

I know - I'm a sap. I'm still new enough to driving that this stuff is still interesting to me.
I took my first motorway journey yesterday - scary to say the least, then after a few minutes (getting into the traffic is the worst bit) very peaceful and relaxing.
The one thing I could never have predicted before learning to drive (at my advanced age!) was that I'd enjoy it so much.
Thanks to the wonderful Lorraine for coming with.

Sometimes google maps gets things wrong. Nothing important obviously, but if you take a look at this bit of the map.... Look at the little details... Squint your eyes and concentrate now...
Vauxhall station is on completely the wrong side of the river! (This was since fixed but only after several months of wrongness)
Obviously that's a pretty serious navigational problem. Do you link to google maps when you email a friend with directions? Are you using google maps on your website? If you do this in the Vauxhall or Pimlico area you may not be being as helpful as you thought you were. Maybe it's time to use a better map, the open licensed map from the London-born not-for-profit OpenStreetMap.
This is taking forever! I am on the last panel but I ran out of blue and need to order more. Aside from that I am 3/4 done!
The map is knitted in 4 panels. Last one and I run out of blue!
At the invitation of Archbishop Anastasios. head of the Orthodox Church in Albania, I was in Albania for several weeks in the winter in 2001 to gather information and do interviews for a book that has since been published by the World Council of Churches: The Resurrection of the Church in Albania. For some chapter from the book, go to: incommunion.org/forest-flier/books/the-resurrection-of-th... .

I wasn't satisfied with my earlier attempts to process this image with multiple exposures because of the motion blur on the ferns, so I went back to the RAW file and used Photomatix to convert the single file to HDR and then tone-mapped it to get this result.
