Everything about this is note-worthy and picture-worthy.

What a fantastic backing track to such sensational photography.

So well done.

Hi Leon,
Yes, it was the trip of a lifetime.
Many thanks for the review and kind words.

The cliff shots of the birds are amazing. Janice was the first to spot the huge number that were perched in addition to those in flight.

The melodic playing and wonderful tone ... well, it would be hard to imagine a better soundtrack for the images.

You two make a great team and we are sure you are proud of one another.

Sublime!

Hi there J&B,
We've spoken about photography before Bud, so I particularly hoped you'd see these shots.
Neil's been lucky enough to travel all over the world taking photographs, but I think he rates
this trip as the high spot. As you say, a lot of these environments are in real danger so it's
good have a record of how it is now.
So, thanks for looking in, for the review and for all the nice comments. All much appreciated.
Stay safe.

Two top-of-the-ladder pros demonstrating why they're at the top. what a wonderful treat. A heartfelt thanks to both of you!

Best to you both. Be safe ...

Hi Alan,
Once again, you make me blush with your comments.
Many thanks for looking in on this one and hoping that you

Take care old friend,

Oh, wow. Your guitar sounds outstanding, ROG. Man, you really make those amazing photos sing. A wonderful blend of creative media. A heartwarming display of the not-far-from-the-tree saying. I've been into photography for years, and love going places like that. When someone takes those opportunities and turns them into that kind of magic, I am not envious; I am grateful. Thank you both.


Enjoy whatever happens!

P.S. Maybe it is my setup, but mix is a bit hot in my headphones.

Hi Misha,
Many thanks for the positive review.
Those of us who worked with tape in days gone by tend to mix "hot" - we were always
fighting tape hiss and trying to maximise the signal to noise ratio. Hope it didn't
hurt your ears!

Hi Graham,
Many thanks for the review and all the nice comments.
Being a Highlander, I wonder if saw our video of the Isle Of Skye.
If not you can find it HERE
The music for that one is by my pal Don Gaynor and myself.
The Scottish side of our family actually come from Barra originally,
but I lived on Skye for many years.
Thanks again,
ROG.

Wonderful photos accompanying a great guitar piece. Your licks are really fine here, ranging from clean and melodic to quite nasty. You're really making it talk. The band is solid and the mix is really good here on the phones. A memorable listen.
