[Leica] Petra - the defile

[Peter Dzwig]

Thank you, Nathan. And all on a phone... ;-)


The trip was a present from my daughter for my 65th. Petra really was 
spectacular and so was the desert at Wadi Rum (maybe I should post some 
of those).

My Fuji ran out of battery - for security reasons I wasn't allowed to 
take a charger on the plane (to do with US regulations imposed on 
airlines flying in and out of Jordan - in this case BA), and a charger I 
was sold out there really wasn't worth the money. I didn't want to risk 
the Leicas. So I ended up using my phone.
