COMMENTS ON THE PHOTOS: First, let me say that I took only a 35mm Olympus with a 55mm lens. I wanted to take my Nikon F2 with a variety of lenses, and once I got there I wished I had. Frankly, I was concerned that customs might grab my camera. That is why I took the cheaper model. Over and over again I longed for my 35mm lens. For shots of people I missed my 85mm. The 55mm is not suitable for shots of buildings or portraits of people, so I just had to do the best I could with what I had. Next time, I will take my chances and carry the good stuff!
