OT - Baja!
It's been awhile since I've posted anything, but I've been enjoying myself. My wife & I spent our anniversary on a sailboat in the Sea of Cortez, exploring the islands near La Paz.

This first photo is one of my favorites, mostly because it's slightly abstract.

Fuji Velvia (shot at ASA 80); f/5.6, 1/60", 105mm lens on Fuji G617.

More of my Baja photos can be seen at:

Enjoy and stay warm,

Tim!

And, this second photograph is from Isla Partida. This small harbor is called "El Embudo" - The Funnel. We had a pleasant hike here and topped out on Isla Partida where there was a playa and we could see the Sea of Cortez on the other side of the island. A mile or two north of El Embudo is Los Islotes, where we were able to swim with wild California sea lions (the pups like to nip at your fins and suits to get your attention).

Fuji 617, Velvia (at asa 80), f/22, 0.5", polarizer

Enjoy,

Tim!

I went through the entire slideshow. You have some very nice images. The 617's especially remind me why I want to shoot that format.

Not knowing the end use of the slideshow, so take this for what it may be worth, but I'd suggest trying to get it down to around 50 or so images. It would be a much stronger presentation. But that aside, I enjoyed watching it.

Thanks for posting the link.

Hi Dan,

I understand your perspective regarding the slideshow; but, there's a method to my madness! ;)

You have some nice shots. It looked a lot warmer than it has been around here. I've been out shooting in below zero weather the last few weeks.
