If I had a $€£1million to spare then I would have been very tempted.

If I had a million to spare I would prefer to park an RV there for the duration and take the shot myself.

I am a great lover of some of AA's work....not sure this is his best work though. :hardhat:

I don't like the horizontal contour lines in the distance and there's lot of lost shadow detail in that example. 

Needs some PS shadow lightening....

I like that approach as well.

However what we (maybe) dont take into account is that the places where these photos were taken are now very changed either through tree growth or deforestation.
Now that Donald is gone the National Parks may get a bit more support from Biden.
I was thinking that maybe I should wait for the Covid to clear and take a trip in 2021 or 2022.


Get thy wallet oot lad, the drinks are on you!

I read a book many moons ago entitled something like.... 'how to make a million pounds with your camera'.
Cant remember who wrote it or if the author was a millionaire. 



It didn't work. :lol:
