You must be enjoying yourselves down there.
Are you sure these pictures are taken by you or you just buy some post cards and add your name on it, just kidding, very nice pictures.

It is not the camera or the lens, it is the man behind the camera. Camera only enhance the man work, it is the man who know the art.

That is a perfect example of how bad your sky must be. Remus takes these fantastic photos of plants, buildings, natural rock formations etc and you say "Wow, look at the sky" LOL!!!!!
