Captured Moments

Returning home from a wonderful travel adventure brings with it a bit of sadness…knowing that it’s over.  Within a day or two, the routine that had been left behind to go exploring, quickly envelops us and forces the mind, and imagination, onto other more immediate issues.

But there are moments - seeing the wrinkled hand of an old man, making faces with a young child in the grocery check-out, savouring the spicy aroma of an exotic dish, or even wiping the dust off a pant leg – yes, these little things allow us to place ourselves back in time, to a place thousands of miles away. 

As long as we have a healthy mind, we’ll always have this treasure - recollection.  And, as the edges and details fade over time, we have pictures.

To see some of our moments captured in Nepal & Bhutan, feel free to click on the “What’s New?” link on the site:

www.RutsUp.com

I’ll leave them in that section for awhile and eventually, I’ll move some of them over to a separate site.

Namaste!

Tammy I have said it so many times, but you really have a gift when it comes to photography. The pictures on the site are beautiful. They capture what I am sure is the essence of the time you spent there. Absolutely incredible!!!!

I was awed by the photos you posted of your trip. You truly have a talent. You have captured so much of the majesty of the mountains as well as the life of the people. You must have a lot of memories of this trip and of the many people that you met on the way that influenced your lives.

Thanks for sharing
