Hej Gert,
I almost get the impression that your scanned photos have better colours than your digital, could it be so? Then I really look forward to the rest of your slides...
This is a very good photo with a lot of interesting details. What´s in the bottles, beer?

Hola:
Impresionantes las imagenes que se pueden ver a lo largo y ancho del planeta. Los puntos mas alejados y olvidados son los que mas nos llama a la curiosidad.
Bonita imagen del comercio de oriente medio.
Un saludo desde España:

Great picture. I like your gallery, specially because your pictures show the real life of the people living in their countries.

Congratulations!!!!

Hi, Gert.
From random photos, I choose this picture because is a spontaneous portrait, very well done.
I like very much!

Renzo
