Uzbekistan 2013 (October 2013)Once we landed in Tashkent and traded in our dollars for a suitcase full of soms, we were ready to tackle Uzbekistan's Silk Road.
First stop - Samarkand. The Registan and Shah-I Zinda are its star attractions but tearing into a loaf of Samarkand bread is a close second. We then headed to Bukhara via an overnight stop at a homestay in the Nurata mountains and another night nestled down in a yurt camp near Lake Aydarkul.
Bukhara, one of Uzbekistan's ancient walled cities, was next on our list. From there we went northwest to Khiva - another walled city inches away from the Turkmenistan border. Trips to the crumbling desert forts in the Karakalpakstan autonomous region of Uzbekistan and the Igor Savitsky Museum in Nukus occupied many of our Khiva days. |

Sydney Harbour at Night (July, 1999)CAMERA: Nikon F100
LENSES: AF 28-200mm 1:3.5-5.6 D; AF Micro 105mm 1:2.8 D
FILM: Fujicolor Superia 200 & Fujicolor HG1600
COMMENT: If my brains hadn’t been leaking out of my ears, I would have remembered/realized that the Superia 200 was going to be able to pick up and hold more shadow detail than the HG1600, and I’d’ve shot more of it instead. Ah well, life’s about trying things and learning from our mistakes…
