The End of an Era...We are Shutting Down the Messageboard

The messageboard is now in read-only mode and no new posts or topics can be created. We will leave the messageboard up for historical purposes, but you will not be able to make new posts or comment on existing ones.

We have started a Discord server and hope that you all will join us on there. Technology has changed over the years and maintaining the messageboard has become somewhat of a pain in the butt and Discord offers many features for users, the main one being a very polished mobile app.

We really hope you all will join us on Discord and think you will like the platform. Use the invite link below to join.

Actually, I was skiing 18" of powder less than 36 hours after leaving the beach. ;)



Angel- you're right, that is Trunk Bay. We actually didn't go there this time (but I've been there twice before), and we didn't make it to Cinnamon Bay either. I'll put it on the list for our next visit though.

trunk bay isnt worth it. It's where they ship all the cruise ship tourists so they only destroy one reef. Nice tr. Some amazing pics.



Did you get a chance to hit the reef bay trail? Its pretty sweet with an end at a nice beach, some ruins, waterfalls, and petroglyphs.



Did you go to the annaberg ruins too?



for Saint john, I thought the tap room was cool, and duffys at st thomas is pretty good too.

We didn't do the Reef Bay Trail, but we did go to the Annaberg Sugar Mill ruins:

Love St. Johns. We have a time share in St. Croix that we try to get to each year.

Spent our Honeymoon there, 9 years ago in September. What a great way to start a life together... we hope to return on our 10th and stay at Cinnamon Bay. Close, laidback, and cheap.

How wide was the lens for this shot? Beautiful as always.

That was taken with my Sigma 10-20mm at its widest focal length. I actually just sold that lens and replaced it with the new Canon 15-85mm IS.



Superorb, if you go to my website, hover over the picture and click on the "i" button, it'll show you all the basic EXIF info for each shot.

Gotcha.



How do you like the Canon 15-85? That's quite a range.
