This thread is for readers who wish to share their own photographs with us. At the moment, readers cannot upload photos to this site (coming soon). We can only display photos that are already published on another site - your own site, or one of the many photo-sharing sites, for example.

Displaying a photo is easy. Simply append the command [img]to%20the%20start%20of%20the%20full%20web%20address%20(starting%20http://%20)%20and%20then%20end%20it%20with%20the%20command[/img]

Hi Gisela
Its great to see your photos of so many Castara people that we have met, the Carnival shots are really good and capture the fun that is had not only by those taking part but also those watching.
I like the new term Tobagomaniacs which along with Castaraphile somes a lot of us up.
Thanks for sharing these with us.
Regards
Paul and Leita

Hi Gisela

Great photos :)

Not having been to Tobago yet (23rd August and counting, why is it going so slow???? :roll: ) I am always watching to see any new photos being posted so was great to see yours, and I hope to add some myself soon.

Cheers 8)

Hello Gisela

How are you doing? Just had a look through your photos, and a few look vaguely familiar - I wonder why? Don't worry, they all look great, reminder of two lovely holidays.

I won't be in Tobago this year either - perhaps see you in Castara again next year sometime?

Take care

Hi Jo, Michelle, Paul and Leita and Bill B.,

I was not in the forum for a while and now there are so many nice new things to see. I love my photos but the quality of Bill's or Jill's or David's photos are much better, I'm just a holiday photographer not an artist like them. =D>
But all photos bring back memories and keeps you in touch with lovely Tobago :D thanks to everybody to share his or her memories with us.

Jo, I remember I put some of your photos with "special thanks to Jo B." on my website :lol: Hope to meet you there again to have lots of Caribs together! %*}

Michelle, longing for your photos but first enjoy your holidays and have a Carib on me when you are there 8)

Cheers
Gisela

Hi Gisela,

Thanks for the compliment, I don't consider myself an "Artist," but it's nice to think that somebody does. And you're being much too modest, you have a lot of excellent photos on your site. =D>

What I find that works for me is to take a lot of pictures and then erase about 90% of them. Mostly by accident, the 10% that are left are fairly decent. Then a little work with a photo editting program (mostly cropping) gets them to a final form.

Hi Gisela,

Yeah thanks for the compliment, but I do exactly as Bill does.

On a recent two week holiday to Turkey, I took 600 photos, not including the ones deleted at the time of taking them - only 180 made it onto the website. So you only see the good ones.

I only use a Sony Cybershot T7 - just a bit larger than a credit card and just snap when the mood or the moment takes me.

Thanks Gisella.I too took about 400 hundred photographs during my last stay so what you see is a small proportion if the very best,there are more in the pipe line it's a matter of finding the time right now,to sort through them.Last visit I used Nikon D50 digital SLR with a 18-55mm lense or Sigma 70-300mm lens with macro.It was my first year with a digital and I am pleased.Previosly I had a Nikon F 401 35mm film SLR with 55mm lense,and I :D would take in the order of 50 or so rolls of film with me ....and stilll buy more!!!In all I reckon I have few thousand pictures of Tobago,so transfering those hard copies into digital will take some time!!!!!!
