Photo 2: Dwarf Flamingo in Namibia When the sun glares off the water, take advantage of those super bright highlights to test out High Key.

Time for my little contribution. I really like these contests that take me back through my hard drive (memories, memories...)

Photo 1: Iguazu Falls, Brazil

To be honest, it was the photo of Victoria Falls that reminded me of this one. The memory of the soaking we got when it was our turn on the boat is still so vivid! !

Photo 2: White Buddha Sakol Sima Mongkol, Lopburi, Thailand

45 meters tall, 27 meters from one knee to the other, and nearly 7 meters long for each ear! You’ll need to climb the 600 steps to admire it up close

Photo 3: Fort Barli Palace, Pushkar, India

The stone of this maharajah’s palace near Pushkar was so white it made these old-time figurines stand out
