Oct 2 Foliage and Diane

Jakarta, did you get it? Well, Peyton, Joani, Mike, Tony, Elaine, and Michelle did!

"Foliage Shoot with Diane"

Fellow photographer, Diane had helped to judge a competition at my club. Because of her location, I pick her up on competition night and then drop her home the next day.

On this occasion I had asked her to pack her camera. After the traditional morning breakfast, we headed over to the Ames properties in Easton.

Foliage was peak, so we just meandered around the acreage to find proof positive about the colors.

Where in the World?

Better get out the atlas as this year I will be featuring some of the more famous cities of the world! Here are some interesting facts about one of them. Just what city would I be visiting? 

    Founded in the year 1434

Previously known as “Pearl of Asia”, it is regarded to be one of Indochina’s most beautiful of the French-constructed cities in the 1920s

one of the most historical structures from the early days of the city is called the Wat Phnom, which was built in the year 1373.

key tourist sites are: the Royal Palace with Silver Pagoda, which dates back to the mid 1880’s; the National Museum, which was built during the French colonial period in the late 1880’s
