I posted links to far too many pictures from my trip, so here are a few
individual favorites.

Comments, compliments, constructive criticisms welcome. If you look at the
rest of the folders and think I should include or exclude a picture from
this "best" group, sing out!

(not staged, Tom A. was talking Howard through how to deal with a "bump"
in the focus mechanism).

All taken with a Panasonic G1, with the 20/1.7, 14-45 kit zoom, and (*) VC
90/3.5 Lanthar for Leica, which becomes a 180mm equivalent on the G1. Very
sharp, easy to focus on mountains. Not so easy on galloping wild horses.

Enjoy!
