Travelling in Japan
Peter Steeper

During my trip to Japan, I visited Kyoto, Kanazawa, Kobe, the Kumano Kodo and the Star Wars Celebration in Tokyo. It was peak cherry blossom season which is enjoyed by the Japanese and people from many other countries. My visit included ancient temples and the modern architecture of the Osaka Expo. I tried everything from Kobe Beef to ramen at hole in the wall restaurants. Japan is a country of the traditional and the most modern.

Türkiye and Morocco: A Journey Through Natural and Cultural Masterpieces
Jim Neale

This presentation offers a visual tapestry of two extraordinary lands – Türkiye and Morocco – where continents meet and civilizations intertwine. We’ll explore breathtaking landscapes, from the surreal fairy chimneys of Cappadocia to the golden dunes of the Sahara, from the rugged coastlines of the Aegean to the High Atlas mountains. We’ll visit the bustling bazaars of Istanbul and Marrachesh and the whirling dervishes of Konya. We’ll step through centuries of history etched into ancient ruins, imperial cities, grand mosques, and desert kasbahs.

Jim’s primary photographic interests are travel and action of all kinds. He and his partner Donna travel several months each year, seeking out places and experiences that are unique and compelling. Sometimes he comes back with reasonable images but photography is not his primary reason for travel, nor do they ever do justice to the magic of the experiences. You can preview some of Jim’s images on his Flickr page (https://www.flickr.com/photos/jimneale/albums).
