Travelogues

Italy 2007 by Mike Basil (2117) 2007-06-21 - 2007-07-16

A combination of vacation and photo safari. Except I was constrained by the liits of the faily vacation. So that meant most of my travels were constrained to between 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. -- the times with the harshest and least dramatic light. But that was just part of the challenge. (Like in the old days when I used to go out on a month-long hiking trip with 4 rolls of 36 exposures). (21 photos)

Here are some old photos from a trip to Europe in 1985. This was my first trip to Europe and I was starting to enjoy taking pictures. I had always shot negative film, but for some reason I decided to shoot slides on the trip. Unfortunately, many of the images have degraded quite a bit in the last 20 years. So here's the best I can do at restoring them (7 photos)
