My top three in order would be:

1. Mumbai
2. London
3. Cape Town

The country I would most like to shoot in would be Japan, but I've never been ... yet.

I got back form Mumbai yesterday, the 39 degrees made concentrating on anything other than sweating very difficult.

1. Cape Town
2. Florence
3. Delhi

Good choices lads ... I really should 'do' a few of the great historic European cities over the next year or so.

I am heading off to Krakow at the end of next week, they made a conscious decision to restore the historic part of the city to look like it did before it was really wrecked during WWII. It is an interesting mind game to play, is it historic or new ???

Something like the feeling Anne Robinson gets when she looks in the mirror :lol:

Well now I am only working a three day week I have time to take a few cheap European flights, like fly out Thursday evening and back Monday evening. Hmmmm, somewhere very historic appeals?

My three favorite places I've shot:

1. Krakow, Poland (ahh the benefits of having family there)
2. Zakopane, Poland (beautiful mountains/scenery)
3. Chicago (ahh the benefits of living here)


This summer I'm going back to Poland for a couple weeks, and will probably stay in Paris for three days also (maybe I'll see Bryan Peterson :confused:)

Dave, I was...from 1967 to 1970 as a young Army Engineer officer. I would love to go back and spend some time there with a camera and lens :)
