And what a great journey you had; one many of us only dream of. Thank you for taking the time to prepare and show these; obviously no small effort! Please keep more coming, Bob" Thank you, Bob, for your comments and compliments! It did take some time and effort which had its own rewards in remembering this adventure. I think there is something to be said for "going through the shoebox" even though the medium has changed significantly. One of the challenges - which I'm sure others among us have experienced - was cropping scanned 35mm slides of very tight compositions. Oliver Nathan wrote: "Great album, Oliver. I would have liked more captions, though. Would be interesting to see how the places you visited look now, 22 years later.Could you go back an re-shoot? :-)) Cheers, Nathan" Nathan, thank you for your comments. I agree that the comments are not as informative as I like to make them; I can only plead memory decay, seemingly exponential as a function of age... I'll let you know when I can come up with substantive improvements. I'd love to go back and re-shoot but after looking at several websites that currently advertise travel into northern India I have the feeling that mass tourism and trekking, as well as specialized yatra tours, might not make the experience as appealing as it was for me...
