    Hi Folks,

    My wife and I are travelling around Morocco for a while, and we're blogging about it over at www.moglander.com. I used to be pretty active on this forum, but not been about for a while. I thought it would be fun to post up a few photos though for old times sake.

    Love d first one as well.
    The other two are fine but run of the mill, nothing memorable about them.

    Nice images, I like them and especially #1.
    Having read through the blog I would say there is a lot that is memorable about them.

    Thanks for the comments folks!

    And yes, there is probably a bit of "attachment" to the images that stops me having a colder more analyticial view of the images, but that's what boards gives!

    Well done with these lovely images, mervifwdc! I agree with others that #1 is unique and I got hypnotized watching it.

    I no its probably not but the photo with the donkey looks as if the donkey has been photoshoped in! Just not very natural looking. jUst think it is the angle of which the photo has been taken.

    The donkey one is real alright, and a bit of a joke. There are loads of similar shots of donkeys looking over stone walls in the west of Ireland, so I was doing a moroccan version - more as a bit of humour than anything else. I pushed the exposure up pretty hard to see some detail in the face, and the sky paid for it. It did'nt bother me as it was a bit of a skit photo.

    But I really appreciate folks taking a look!
