NOTE: If you are interested in using my photography in an academic & non-commercial setting, please feel free. I'm very flattered by the requests I have received, and I feel terrible about those of you I never got back to - I only very rarely check this gallery for notes or comments. Still, I'm always eager to share what I experienced in these beautiful countries with others. While I would appreciate a link or credit for photos used (and I'd love to be notified about what pictures you are using, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy!), there's absolutely no need to ask my permission.
