Sarajevsko Goblje Bare

In my last couple months in Sarajevo, I didn't have access to my computer and I also did a lot of walking around and took a lot of photos (Until my camera died). I'm starting to wander through the photos I took during this time period, sort of mentally preparing myself to start organizing them.

I walked to or through a lot of cemeteries in that time. Here are some of my last photos of the huge cemetery, Sarajevsko Groblje Bare. Which I've blogged about many times before, including here, here and here. I hoped to do a cool merge of two selective focus photos, but the idea I had didn't work out like I thought it would....so you don't get to see it :)

Alifakovac Cemetery - Sarajevo, BiH

While going through some old blog entries and some old photos today, I noticed I made this entry and haven't ever put up any of the photos...well now that I have my computer, a couple minutes, and photoshop, here are a few shots of Alifakovac Cemetery. I took a photo of the USAID descriptive placard which is at the bottom here. There isn't a whole lot on the web about this cemetery, a google search on it brings my previous meager entry up #2...

Alaska Mist

One of the many highlights of our cruise was Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. Stunning. A misty morning that cleared to beautiful blue skies with puffy white clouds by the time we got to the glacier. It was here that I began to worry that I would run out of memory cards for my camera. Easy to see why Glacier Bay is on the World Heritage List...

Here are a few photos of the morning mist on our way in to see the glaciers.

Abstract

I pretty much got my new computer where I want it to be now. I have CS4 loaded, just need to learn the differences and advantages compared to Photoshop CS2. The 64 bit version seems much faster, as does the new version of Bridge. Now I need to start organizing and catching up...

In the meantime, I took this a few minutes ago.

Take a Guess...

Alaskan Bear

In Haines, roaming around with a few other guys from the cruise with a local photographer, we came across a bear doing a little salmon fishing...
