Enjoyed the show very much. It looks like you had a great trip. Thanks for the pix.

Thanks for sharing that. I particularly enjoyed it since people keep telling me I can't tour on my '07 650GS . . . wish they'd told me that 31000 miles and 14 months ago!

Thanks for the pictres!
I have never been on a ride like that, just riding with friends & family.
I have a greater understanding of what they are like.
Someday soon I would like to go.

Very nicee job....

Question? what kind of camera/lens and what digital rating?

[Slablog]

JimBud-I use three cameras. One little Nikon point-n-shoot which gives generally good results just using 'auto'. This one I keep in the tank bag for when I stop to take quick shots of the bike and scenes together. The other little point-n-shoot is a cheap Samsung with a tether around my neck and two rubber nubs glued to the buttons for shooting with my left hand as I ride . The pictures aren't the best but its a tradeoff to get shots on the fly without stopping.
My third camera is my best one; A digi SLR Olympus E-410 which sometimes rides in the tankbag, but most often is stored away safely in its own bag. It came with the kit lenses I use. A 14-42 zoom and a 40-150 zoom. I use it when I stop for a while for the best shots and flexibility in settings.

Great. I feel, when I see the pictures, that I missed a lot of times when I could have stopped to smell the roses. Nice music. Thanks.

That slide show should be seen by some of the nay-sayers on some of the other threads that are on-line. A truly fun and enjoyable time was to be had by those willing to look for the positive side of life.

[Vinton]

What software did you use to create the slide show? Very nice job.

[Slablog]

Wow! Time flies. I just wandered back over here and there's one more question for me....

It's a program called "Soundslides". Its cheap, basic and a test version can be downloaded from the internet. There are some shortcomings but for the most part it does an ample job for me.
