Thanks for all the kind words. When I travel, these are the types of pictures I really enjoy taking. It is sometime a challenge to get the shot I am hoping for, but it is worth the effort. I am glad you like the images I have captured. I will be posting additional shots in the next few days.
Thanks again, everyone.

Thanks Jim, I still have more pics from Peru I will be posting, so keep and eye out for them. I still haven't posted my favorite shots of people from the trip yet, but will being doing so soon.

I am indeed planning to have some prints made. Hopefully they will turn out well.
Best regards,
