Cinque Terre – Vernazza

[singlepic id=1914 w=480 float=left] OK, last one of Vernazza… Looking back as we were hiking out of town.  I’m not sure why I have a disproportionate number of pictures from Vernazza – must have been the most picturesque town of the five.

Albino Peacock

[singlepic id=1898 w=480 float=left] I was asked for a picture of a llama… I do not have any pictures of llamas.  This is an albino peacock, which is in now way even closely related to a llama. Picture taken with Olympus C2040z, lens @ 7.3 (40mm eq), 1/250 sec shutter, f/1.8,… Continue reading
