My Digital Art - "Nature Interpreted" - can now be view at http://www.luvntravlnphotography.com
"Nature Interpreted" - Photography begins with your mind and eyes, and ends with an image representing your vision and your reality of the captured scene; photography exceeds the camera sensor's limitations. Capturing and Processing landscapes and seascapes allows me to express my vision and reality of Nature.
This island was rumoured to be the staging ground for an invasion of iran by US troops late February this year. Turned out to be a nothing but a rumour, thank goodness.
Friends of mine have been thereand loved it.
I've been in Socotra 5 y. ago. Fantastic places! many birds and reptiles are variant of the common ones. If you're inrested just look into the web. But....Yemen is actually a difficult country as the usual problem boke out(radical islamic, Sciites gueriila in the centre, old complaints of the south towards the north,etc). My tour operator is not going anymore there.
