Thank you, I am rather a beginner with photoshop manipulation , so your encouragement is really appreciated. Please don't be shy to tell me how I could improve.

Wow...thank you very much.

This was taken in Outer Mongolia on the outskirts of Ulan Baatar. We were driving into town from living in yurts with families. Did you know there is one person for every 6 square miles ....not densley populated at all...and when you go for a walk, and pass a 'strangers' yurt, it is automatic that you get invited in, fed a cup of "vodka" (which they distill)...or a cup of "camel milk" or "mare's milk" or 'yogurt cheese" (that smells like old socks). It is their custom to not ignore strangers even tho' we sure look different from them. A wonderful magical country full of tough tough hard working and kind people. Thank you for asking. Please don't be shy to tell me how to improve in photo manipulation work as I'm fairly new to it. Thanks again.

Sincerely,

Olga

If you and your other half decide to go let me know because I want to go back. If we do go around the same time we could do the tour together and visit families ...it takes a week or more (depending on tour). We did this with a young German girl (who is now a psychiatrist) and it was just so much fun. We sang in the car and she was singing a chicken song that sounded almost as silly as HALLOOOO OLGA song. We sang our way across the Mongolian Plains and when we picked up hitch hikers....they also had to sing. We had songs sung in Mongolian, Ukrainian, German, Japanese and of course the Canadian National Anthem..... (ahem).

Thanks for the invitation! I look forward to that, driving along the steppes of Mongolia singing silly songs with hitchikers, drinking vodka with the locals... sounds very promising

You haven't been deleted so I guess this is kosher. I have learned from belonging on here thanks to members like Zizounai, Skyangel and you...and of course the photoshop aspect of pyxleyes is a learning experience. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU for your suggestions and the link. This hobby we have is just fabulous isn't it????....it is so much fun getting creative and meeting new like minded people. yay yay yay.

Thank you George55 for stopping by and encouraging me.
