Great pix!

Ok, I don't know what I did wrong there...but if you click the http://murphypictures one and then "enter this album" you can flip through them.

Thanks high flyer!

I played around with this some more - click the long address (second link), then "enter photo album" then for better viewing you can click "slideshow" button toward the top on the right side of the page.

Your photographs are incredible--not only the subjects, but your framing of them. What a beautiful book they would make!

Thanks for sharing them on this forum, Murphy.

And mouse over the pictures for the titles..
Lord! You have some fantastic shots from different and unusual angles! I love Fougeres , did you?

murphy89 Jun 30th, 2006 06:04 PM

Thanks guys! I did love Fougeres - as you can tell by picture volume - lol! I really like my shots from Chenonnceau though, because I managed to go when not one other tourist was present! I couldn't believe my luck and snapped enless photos of the place.

Cheers,

Murphy

wow, you have raised the bar! These are so beautiful and the framing stunning!

Fantastic! Oh my, they're all so beautiful: the budding trees at Rennes, the quietness of Chenonceau, love the moat at Fougeres, and on and on. Lovely!

Thanks guys for the feedback! I love showing my photos - it became such a great hobby during my trip. I actually bought a film camera for the trip because I felt I couldn't afford a digital - but I think a digital would have been great. The cost of developing my film was really astronomical and I had to carry it all around for 3 months. The photos turned out ok, but if I had digital I could have screened out the bad photos instead of paying for them all. Lesson Learned - next time.

Cheers,

Murphy

Murphy,
Are you a professional photographer? Those pictures were incredible!!! I was bummed when the slideshow was over. I am going to Paris and Provence in October and am rethinking my trip because of your fabulous photos. Thanks so much!

murphy89 Jul 2nd, 2006 05:48 AM

No, not a professional photographer - but thank you for the flattering comments gchizz!

I have started part II of my adventures on a seperate post as well. The link is: http://www.fodors.com/forums/threads...p;tid=34829349

Murphy, I just got a chance to go through your awesome photos after a busy Canada Day weekend. Actually I went through them twice because I didn't figure out the mouseover caption thingie until I read jody's comments. Many of them, like Amboise and Mont St. Michel bring back memories of a trip there with my daughter. Thanks so much for sharing!
