Tibet 1985, Lhasa Jokhang temple, people shots. Seems a lifetime ago.

@Cossie I really like the rawness of your Tibet photos especially the third one, thanks for sharing. All I need now is some photos from Bhutan and I have all 3 on my list.

I'm loving this thread - it does make you think. But must finish my Antarctic TR before I start posting on here

Xishuangbanna, southern China, 1984, people shots. A very hard life for a lot of people.



These and the Lhasa shots were scanned from slides then cut down, so a lot of resolution has been lost.

They look good.

Modern scanners (epson photo for example) do fabulous jobs of scanning old slides. I’ve scanned slides from ‘78 (12 at a time) on our scanner with colour correction (fade) and noise and scratch removal with IR scan, and the results are quite impressive.

Great thread... Filling the mind and soul with better things

Very true. I am enjoying going back over old trips to narrow it down to three photos. It brings back some good memories and distracts from the current problems very nicely.

What is the context of the Vancouver photo, is it a film shoot or something? I can't make out what sort of trolley that is in front of the police car.

By the way as another sad, deluded Saints fan, I like your profile avatar!

Such a great thread and a great distraction. I'll have a look through my archives and see what I can dig up.

I'm really enjoying this thread. The photography is great and it is a wonderful respite from covid-19.
Thanks everyone

To distract myself and hopefully others.

Europe Trip 2011

Ludwigsburg Palace - just outside Stuttgart. I had the best Guided Tour ever of any European palace or castle there.



Fontaines de la Concorde - funnily enough in the Place de la Concorde Paris.



And as a break from the historic or scenic photos one of the good points of overseas travel - meeting people.

Sharing Raclette and good beer and wine at my wife's, about 25 degrees removed, cousins house in Wehr - Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is about 10 kms away from the Rhine and the border with Switzerland.

QF63 en route to JNB - when an iceberg splits just as you press the button




NY Subway 2015 - "Don't move Mother cough*er"
When you catch the wrong train late at night and the police swarm the station to arrest gang members with guns drawn




Central Station NY - times have changed (for the better)

Hi all

I was recently inspired by the amazing photos that were displayed in this thread -

Taken - Free Stuff - Who Wants to be a VA WP (Velocity Platinum)

Who wants to be a WP with VA. Over the past couple of years I have given away VA SG companion status but not WP so this is a first. I have no one to give it to, MrsM has the QF complementary WP and does not need or want this one. I have called the VA CC and they confirmed I am good to go. Like...

www.australianfrequentflyer.com.au

So many amazing photos taken by us as a group and I'm sure we would enjoy traveling through everyone's photos. Therefore, I though that I would start this thread with limited rules.

Post only the three photos from one round trip that you like best and share it with us all.

I look forward to seeing some amazing photos.
