Thanks. I am not overly happy with the shots as I was shooting in low light without my Trip-Pod. Had to use high ISO'a and 4-5.5 F stops and still the shutter speeds were too slow. Should have never left home without it. Cheers JIM

Very pretty country Jimbo. You do a lot more justice to the area then the folk who did the Road Rash game maps of the area.

Nice reminder of Napa - I haven't been there in years, but now that my daughter lives in Palo Alto, we'll be visiting again.

Nice shots, buddy.

I wasn't too happy with these. Left me Tri=Pod at home so was shooting higher ISO and wide open on n F stop to get the shots. Thanks bud. I always like visiting customers houses. They complain so much about pricing but own million dollar homes! Cheers JIM
