Fair enough. That's cool.

I generally album them and store them. Problem is I changed to Mac in the middle of this and it's ****ing atrocious to try and organise them and manage them. I'd rather it was done on windows to a hard drive and cloud.

Nevermind, never really look back at them other than once a year to make a calendar for my Granny's Birthday. Helpfully it's on Boxing Day so when making it I get to review and relive another lucky year of enjoying life.

I have printed a few of my favourites but space at home in the UK is at a premium and I'm not allowed to put any more up. Might get a few printed here of the ones I haven't printed yet. Have done a personal photo book of my favourite/best shots.

Made a 100-page photobook (bought from Groupon for about £12) for a friend/colleague who left. Very pleased with the results.

Not really wanting a holiday as such, but to get something like this and just wander for years would be my ideal.

Problems are 1) it's £420,000 and 2) To get a Carnet de Passages doc that ensures you can drive into all the countries, but you have to pay a deposit equal (at least) to the trucks value - just so you won't sell it in country. That kinda makes it expensive on cash-flow.

Initial route across Aus for 6 months or so, learn the ropes in an English Speaking Country that has off road galore, then 18 months+ in South America, ferry across the Dorian Gap, back in the truck from Panama and then North America. Finally Himalaya and far east.

Never wanted to go to Africa.

Racist...

No one wants to see the pictures you took of a temple. There will always be better examples online taken by professionals with the right equipment, on the right day with the right lighting. I generally only take pictures of people, which I print out or put into books. The print-outs go in frames around the house and get changed regularly to keep it fresh.

I'd like to do a large RV across the US. Not exactly impossible to do but it requires a 4-6 week commitment that I cannot give. Haven't been to South America and wouldn't mind going there for a bit - might take my son there during his gap year as part of the tour we are planning (which was initially Asia and Vegas)... but he's expressed interest in Colombian women.

By train from London to Beijing, with a ticket that allows me to stop off anywhere that looks interesting, and explore for an hour, a day, a week... Would travel light, with my camera and my iPad loaded with all the books-to-read on my Bucket List.

Then fly Beijing to Osaka, a week there then back home.

It's on my Bucket List, but one that I acknowledge may not happen.

Why Osaka?

We’ve put some of our better photos onto our Mac Mini which is commected to our TV in the kitchen/family room -turns it into a digital photoframe. This allows us to have a ‘screensaver slideshow’ so we’re able to enjoy some of the best moments of holidays and times spent with family and friends whenever the TV is turned on.

'Tis where the out-laws live. There are better places to visit in Japan, although after a month or so in China (and maybe Russia) pretty-much anywhere in Japan would be fine for the cuisine, the drinking establishments, and the order.

I saw a video on YouTube of a family doing London to Hong Kong by train. Looked interesting. Not sure how long it took...I'm guessing a week or more. And Japan...having worked with Japanese companies a few times, it's at the top of my want-to-see list, especially when the cherry blossom is out.

That's a good idea. We've just had a TV installed in the kitchen, I wonder if I could just put a memory stick into it and set the TV up to do a random slideshow...

I think there's a whole thread on Scamp's visit last year.

I used to do the same and its really nice. Just be careful that no cock shots accidentally uploaded to the cloud appear at 3pm.

Just what I was going to say. Make sure you select which folders you want the slideshow to choose from carefully!
