First visit in a decade to the town where I grew up last weekend: Newcastle upon Tyne. The riverside is looking great these days!

Nice pic Stut! It's amazing how much the riverside has changed in the last 4-5 years.

IMHO, it is more than a 'nice' picture, it is a GREAT picture!

Thanks for share it with us.

Hard to select, but some of my favourites from places we have visited over the last few years ..

Welcome!

After seen all your wonderful photos, I came to the same conclusion; hard to select, as they are all great.

orangutan: Wonderful photos again! Your photos alway have a 'special quality' about them, must learn to do that!

Here a couple of photos from DC(A)

WW2 II Monument

Nice! The festival is on my list of events to attend (and Ottawa on my list of places to go).

[QUOTE=SQ4000;11723645]I agree, that picture of Newcastle is stunning!

I particularly like the WWII Memorial photo. Very nice.

+1 Great picture, thanks for sharing. ^

Love the WW2 Monument. Amazing pano shot.

Thank you for your kind words. The "special quality" you mention, comes from post-processing. No way my photos are leaving the house without putting on high heels and makeups. :D

Thank you. This weekend's the last week to go check out the tulips in Ottawa.

Here's some tulip shots from the festival......(I hope I don't break the rules as it's not related to travel places)

And once again, I feel grumpy about having to cancel my SYD trip last November due to surgery.

I *will* get there. And take lots of photos.

Great night shot!

Very nice. Postcard nice.

Wow, thankyou for the comments on the Tyneside photo! As I currently seem to have an obsession with B&W river shots, here's one of my favourite London views, from a quick trip down there this weekend:
