Some where along the drive in some town near the spanish-french border.
HIGHLIGHTS
4yrs ago today I drove from Bordeaux France to Madrid Spain. Along the way we made a couple stops, most pominently in Burgos Spain.
Enjoy the second day of pictures and keep on looking forward to 80 more… some not so plentiful as this (but some more)
We drove a lot that day but in the end we made it to Madrid from Barcelona.
But the highlight was just before sunset we spend the evening checking out BURGOS, Spain.
Lots of people and lots of stone.

Envisioning Europe - May1
(By Scott Jarvie)
THE PROJECT
Today starts day 1 of an 82 day project. Each day we’ll post the pictures that were taken 4yrs previous.
This means 4yrs ago today these pictures were taken.
The hope is you’ll better be able to envision what these areas of Europe look like.
Join in on this trip and listen to some of the things written about the places, people and things.
The pictures were taken by Scott Jarvie – See his photoblog here
Tis I that will be writing this set of posts.
REMASTERED
The release is an exciting opportunity to go back through the pictures 4yrs later with lots more selecting and editing skills.
Going through the pictures with a faster computer and a better eye to bring back what I saw even with simple entry level lenses.
The purpose of these posts are to help you envision europe, and to enjoy beautiful pictures.
I’m not a photojournalist, I make no apologies for editing the pictures, I want them to insire an appreciation for the location to portray my vision for that area.
Thus these pictures are remastered. Which is probably the most exciting part of the project.
LAYOUT
Some posts will be long… because I took a lot of good pictures that day.
Some posts will be short… because I didn’t take a lot of pictures that day.

An old cathedral building in Exeter, England on a stormy day.
There is a website for this cathedral. : To find out more about the cathedral go here
“Founded in 1050, the Cathedral has always been dedicated to Peter – one of Jesus’ earliest followers and a key leader in the first Christian community.” -Jonathan Meyrick
Here is a post about how the photographer (Jeremy Hall) edited the picture.
In the post Jeremy describes how he edited the picture… but also has some words to say about the building as well
“This particular photo is one that I took a few years ago on a wonderful trip to the United Kingdom.
I was astounded at the intricacy and beauty of this building, but also by the dramatic clouds looming over it.”
This bird lives at the Krishna temple found in Salem, Utah
Picture taken by: Scott Jarvie
And yes the bird did talk a little… not as much as the other parrot in the cage next to him.
I think seeing the 3 parrots, numerous llamas and peacocks tells us a little something about their care and concern for animal life.
It goes along with their vegetarian lifestyle.
To learn more about Krishnaism check out the wikipedia listing… and feel free to share other links about the religion.
I’m sure we’ll be visiting the topic often in the future along with many other religions and locations around the world.
In this week’s episode (which was actually recorded a couple weeks ago) Scott and I talked about a few current events before we interviewed our guest. Only a short month ago a cyclone devastated Myanmar (formerly known as Burma) and the military junta that controls the country did not allow enough foreign aid in to help its citizens. Thousands have died, and many are still in peril. To find out more click here. After that we discussed similar devastation, with a lot more help in Iowa with the flood that hit Cedar City. After our little stint with current events we jumped right into our fabulous discussion with Katherine Loveless about her photography, philosophy, and her pictures of the Oregon coast. She was in Oregon with her father to go to a workshop with renowned Bromoil artist, David Lewis.
