We have finally selected, cropped, enhanced and uploaded some of the photos from our Cuba trip to the online photo gallery. As many of you know I was in Cuba from April 16th to May 2nd, together with my Alenka. We visited all of the 14 provinces.
We had two cameras – my older one but still great Sony F717 and Alenka’s new Nikon D80. More than 1,700 photos are resting in our home computer now and we somehow we managed to choose around 700 photos to our online gallery.
Enjoy t...
