I've been scanning some old slides. If you can get past the film grain (which removing digitally really degrades the image) some of the scenes are (IMO) pretty nice.

Farmhouse and wildflowers, New Brunswick, 1970



St. Abbs, Scotland, ca. 1974



Meadow near Edinburgh, Scotland ca. 1974



Iliuliuk Bay, Unalaska, Alaska, ca. 1977

Why?

Conversely, a lot of them are posted here FROM Flickr.

I usually submit more writing than photography here at FlyerTalk, but here's a sampling of pictures from my travels over the years...



Springtime amidst the aspens atop Colorado's McClure Pass


Patagonian peaks tower above Lake Pehue in southern Chile


Looking down on my campsite at Lower Ice Lake
Glacier Peak Wilderness Area - Cascade Mountains, Washington State


Rolling through Montana aboard Amtrak's Empire Builder



The street I grew up on


Two Alaskan guys enjoying a breakfast beer
Which one is me?

Some of these youngsters these days actually intentionally add that effect to their photos on Instagram.

Spectacular shots.

You have literally been everywhere that is on my bucket list.

And you've photographed them much better than I ever could! Beautiful shots.

BTW, I think the other dude on the ferry has just barely edged you out on the beard-growing competition...

Thanks for the excellent pictures (and to everyone for the excellent pictures).

I am going to stick my neck out and say this is Cuernos del Paine. Torres del Paine are to the right of this photo and around the corner a bit.

Definitely go. It's spectacular

I guess I'll have to go and figure it out for myself.



Read a bunch of books on mountain climbing years ago, and that region really struck me.

Whatever you do, do not go with my ex-girlfriend. She wore a pair of flats without any tread and kept falling over and crying. She just ruins the experience. If she asks you to go with her just say no.

From my recent trip (you can see more in my TR) to Thalay Bua Dang (Red Lotus Sea) outside of Udon Thani.
