Another great show, Joe! Love all of them. IMHO, this set is less eclectic than the others, what makes it more presentable and attractive, again, It’s me.

Thank you very much Eugene for your nice words. I am glad you feel comfortable with these photos, my favorites here are the pictures of Japan, I have visited the Kyoto shrines and temples numerous times since the Sixties, but that iconic torii gate down in Miyjajima had always eluded me so I was very happy to be able to tag that on as a side-trip to our organized tour through Japan in 2017
