I love everyone's pictures!

Here is one from John. He's been lots of places for work that I have not seen. Shanghai:

We are covering lots of ground! Has anyone been to Antarctica?

Here are more pinched from the John files. Looking up inside the lobby of the Burj al-Arab:

Seriously - are those color corrected/balanced at all - or where you using a filter of some kind? The last one is Amalfi? Looks just like the Cinque Terre -
Anthony, I can't tell you my secrets. :wink: (but that color might be the result of a polarizing filter and a slight drop of color saturation in Photoshop...). The first photo is just before reaching Positano, the second is Atrani, and the third is the tiny spot of Fuore. And...while I was in Italy, I ran up and hugged every Anthony I met just in case you were visiting farther south, but no luck finding you. It did make me very popular, however.

You have to step 5 meters to the right to be within the boundaries of F#cking.

From that same trip we have pictures of my daughter on each side of the Bitche FR city sign.
