worth the wait....i loved all the people, the kids especially...the market to was fantastic....can't wait to hear all about it in person..

Very nice photos Craig!

Thanks so much for sharing your photos. Your photos from your walks from the eco-lodge are just wonderful!

Great pictures Craig & Jeane. Which one of you is the photographer?

Gorgeous photos guys! I especially love the people shots. Thanks so much for posting them ~ and thanks again for your trip report!

Thanks you guys for sharing such wonderful photos. Some would make great cards!

Aloha!

Wonderful photos!

Lovely photos.

Beautiful pictures!

Wow it looks fantastic. I am only going for work I think in October but camnnot wait to see the cities in the evenings when free. Thanks for posting these.

I really enjoyed seeing these, and wish I was as good a photographer as you!

Thanks for all of your kind words. Although I put the presentation together, my wife Jeane took most of the photos of the hill-tribe people, especially the close-ups.

WOW, so not only have we gotten GREAT tips for forthcoming trips the photo's are AMAZING do you (Jeane) use a professional camera?

Yes, Fantastic pics, Craig ! ... (Well, let's not get too carried away on this fine family friendly 'fodor's' forum of all of 17 posters) ...

... (yes, sole reason for replying: A certain 'Singapore Girl', and her most exceptional 'SQTalk' trip reports (pics) of late, including yes, SQ R/F/J re certain 'other' airlines ... (something for you and your mrs, to persue, perhaps, in 2011 ... understand you're flying UA 'new C' in '10 : just between us, avoid flying 'backwards', mid-row 8, and do your best to procure row 12 - enjoy) ...

... nothing other to add before I fly SFO-HKG-SIN (UA C / SQ J) this Thursday/Friday, other than for you to write a BKK Peninsula review and turn it a up notch with rooms/suites, floors 3___+ at that beloved Thai property ... (would so love to do a review of my (our) all-time favourite Asian hotel, but that little dog-loving Russian 'matchmaker' beat me to it) ... (but all is not lost : the all-time cherished Tokyo Park Hyatt awaits) ...

... keep up the good work, Craig, and always remember : Singapore Girls -- Forever...

... 17A, all the way ...

Thanks forever, SIA B747 J crews, SQ 2/1, SIN-HKG-SFO ... (and your 'new' B77W J Asia- N.A. product isn't half bad) ...

fabulous pictures...I LOVED the market ones. The textiles in their outfits were outstanding. Surely some note cards in that lot..Karen

Smeagol,

I use a Canon Powershot A720 IS camera (not "professional") and Jeane uses Canon EOS 40D and Canon EOS 20D cameras (could be considered "professional").

What a terrific time you had reflected in these amazing pictures, makes us want to plan our next trip there!

Very nice montage, the setting of the ecolodge in Sapa is magical.

Craig - My husband and I have thousands of travel pictures stored on our computer and on DVDs, but we have never used a program like smugmug or others out there to share them with friends and family. How do you like Smugmug? Does anyone else suggest another program to share pictures?

Also, there was a thread on Fodors several months ago regarding a site that allows one to download their pictures and make a travel journal that can be purchased. Does anyone remember which website that was?

Well i am just going to have to see how well my Lumix does and maybe take a look at those canons!! I am always a little disappointed with my photos but i think its me not the camera! When we were in Malaysia i decided to take pictures of more random things (including someone drying there underwear on a busy street) and they became a lot more interesting than my usual "heres me outside a temple"
I think that's one of the reasons yours are so good they have "real" people in them

Smeagol made a good point - capturing the locals does change your photography. What is the protocol in Vietnam for taking pictures of the locals? Do you ask? Did anyone expected to be tipped?

nikki...try taking pics of muffin, you know how he is with cameras...
