Gilliatt,
Your boy looks like a natural horseman. Is that the Lone Ranger I see in the background?

Gilliatt,

Hehe, Yes, and I'd say he's put on a few pounds, shed the mask and upgraded to sunglasses!
Thanks Gilliatt and I must say you have a good observation, yes she was in tears when the picture was taken.Quote:
She is wonderful. Is that a small tear I see?
Oh your son is adorable, how old is he now? Is it you riding beside your son?Quote:
Here are a few photos of my son taken a few years back at Red River New Mexico.
The photos are scanned from film prints.
Hehe - In the words of Mies van der Rohe; "God is in the details". I thought she may have been a little upset given the tear and a slight furrow in the brow.Quote:

@Brian, you are quite a traveller, apparently :) Nice pictures, especially that of the Milan Cathedral.

I do have plenty of other photos and will endeavour to show some of them in due course.
Oh! He is a young lad now. :)Quote:

Claes how do you manage to take such wonderful close ups?
Thanks. I did have a good trip to the coast and I will show the photos I took when I have them developed.Quote:

Brian, I'm so jealous of all your travels and your pictures are lovely! :D
Gilliatt, your son is cute! The New Mexico landscape is absolutely beautiful!
Certainly: A Canon Powershot SX100 IS. Nothing fancy, but it does the job. The only problems if you can call them that is that it needs more light than a SLR camera, and that you can not change the lens. It was called a high end pocket camera when it came out but these days it is more or less run of the mill.
