#2 and 7 are my favorites of this bunch. You may have answered this elsewhere, but what camera did you take these with?
Anil,
Those are probably my favorite as well but it’s hard to rank them.
These are actually images from Flickr from photographers who were kind enough to grant a Creative Commons license to allow them to be displayed elsewhere. If you click a photo, it will bring you to the flickr page where you can see the exif data that usually displays the type of camera used.
Thanks for checking it out!
These pictures are incredible. I’ve seen many of them in person. You brought out the best in them.
The photos are unique!
Only not because one photo belongs to me. Thank you which you have also decided for my photo
Ela2007 – Your photo is licensed on Flickr under the creative commons license. You had to personally select that license which allows fair use of the image across the internet. If you would not like it used you may let me know, but please remove your creative commons license on Flickr.
As you can see, I linked to your image and gave you credit for taking it. Maybe I misunderstand your comment.
Hi there,
I live in Rome and I realize I’m very lucky to have the possibility to see three of these wonderful sights whenever I want. :) The picture of the Colosseum, which is my amongst my favorites,is amazing!
Cheers from Rome!
sadly I’ve only seen one of these, number 7. To make it worse the day we were in paris it was closed. I need to go back and i’ll take this post as a tour guide! love it!
i have to see number 8 AT LEAST before I die, AMAZING!
Of the half or so that I have been to, all of them were fantastic. I thought Venice was incredible, but you really only need a couple of days to see it. I have heard that the Norwegian Fjords are also very impressive.
Very nice choice of photos by the way…
Dear Jeffery,
no problem. You misunderstood me and my comments.
It is quite alright, what you did.
Some of my pictures are in Gettys hand but this one not yet.
Sorry, my English is not so good.
