Here are several photographs taken in the middle of a very busy, sometimes hectic and hurried year that documented a grand 15,000 kilometer odyssey, brought great peace and calm, and gave me a chance to share some of my experiences through the lens of my camera in a book for friends and family.
There are pictures taken at touristy spots (like the cover photo) but taken from a spot off the beaten track, and these are blended with some views that required a short hike or long poke to find... only a few people shots, mostly of kids - mine and some young friends - because I am no Annie Liebovitz! And, Ansel Adams with a digital camera, I am not. I was just lucky to have my camera catch what I saw in my mind's eye.
