Were you in one of the cars in the fog?

Yup we were. Long line to get in one, especially the ones with a clear fibreglass bottom which came by one in every 4 cars. Maybe we were early, but the cars coming back were empty. Every single one of them. Kinda added to the creepy factor.
We shared the cabin with two really young fellas (early 20s tops) and we started talking... because it can get awkward and quiet in there, sitting on opposite sides, me looking at you, you looking at me, the wind whistling in through gaps at the windows... turns out they were custom jewelry makers, the really intricate kind with gold and other precious metals.

But Taiwan was fun. Loads of night market shots and I specifically also asked my host to bring us to the day markets as well so that I could get some shots for Leighton. Those were crazy, patrons came in these motor scooters, even riding them indoors! Took a lot of one-handed no-look back-button-focus and snap shots, my other arm cradling the kid.
She was the shore excursions director on our ship and she kept having time off when we did
I guess she was lucky
She was with us in Grand Cayman and Aruba
I wish I could remember her name

Here's a before-and-after. Experimenting with layers and effects, no plugins. Wish I had 11 so I could also have transparencies on the layers but oh well.

It has been a while since I've posted pictures, so here are a few from a little over a week ago from a wine tasting getaway in Lodi, CA. I just need more personal time to process more images and get back into posting regularly again.
