It's awesome!!! :-) Hi Crew I'm sure you'll remember this cruise trip from last week? :-) You might be surprised, in one week we already have a LUG couple from New York signed for this incredible cruise. Maybe if more of you can see your way clear to joining us for a wonderful picture taking cruise and possibly learning a few tricks of the trade from the old Doc? ;-) We could have a "LUG LOVE BOAT CRUISE!" :-) Oh com' on let yer imagination run wild and join us! :-) The "old doc. guy" ;-) doing the photo presentations was the keynote lecturer for the Leica Cape Cod International Seminar for 16 years. :-) I do believe he has a few interesting photo things that may surprise you! On the cruise its any old kind of camera at all, as it's going to be all about photography! Make it a "Personal Christmas gift" to yourself or give it to your wife or husband, then come along as their escort. :-) Lights, Eyes, Action! How can you go wrong asking questions of and learning from a photojournalist with 61 years experience of published PHOTOGRAPHY and several books! A fabulous Photography Cruise to Alaska it will be a wonderful completely different "boat ride!" :-) Cheers, Dr. ted :-) Ted Grant is an international lecturer, author of five books, and recipient of multiple, prestigious awards.
