Ohh, Mike!  Those are terrific.  I especially like the first two.  I love the character lines in the lady's face.  She looks like a happy lady.  I wonder what kind of life she's had and if she lives alone.  I wonder if she knows the Lord Jesus as her Saviour.

The second photo shows such wonderful workmanship in those traditional outfits.  What a lot of work! 

The boys at the bustop didn't seem to mind their photos taken.  That photo looks as if it could have been taken in any of our countries.

Thanks Mike!

I look forward to your photos on your walks.

I'm a little disappointed in the second, because of the complex detail in the photo, had to compress the picture way way way down.  So forgive the compression artifacts, because they are there only because I had to keep it under 35k.

Sometimes when that happens to me, I resize it to maybe 400 pixels before compressing and then I don't have the artifacts showing.
