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

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.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?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.Originally Posted by Snowqueen
My son is now 15 (God help us) and we were "riding" together. I would say strolling is more accurate.

Great pictures, Claes!
@Brian, you are quite a traveller, apparentlyNice pictures, especially that of the Milan Cathedral.

I'm glad you like the pictures. I have travelled fairly widely, but it's worth remembering that it has been over many years. My earliest pictures were taken with a much cheaper camera than the one I have now, and it shows. Unfortunately, they are firmly stuck into albums and, therefore, cannot be shown on this thread. 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.
Great variety of pictures there Brian, I hope you had a good visit to the South coast of England too.Here are a few more photos taken at various locations throughout the years.
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.
Thank you... Basically by sheer numbers: I snap a ton of pictures and then sift through the wreckage to find some decent shots among all the mediocre or utterly failed attempts...

Awe, sweet!

Claes, your pictures are all great! May I ask what camera/attachments you use? Same to you Kafka!
Brian, I'm so jealous of all your travels and your pictures are lovely!
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.

Do, or do not. There is no try. - Yoda
