Re: Nikons and Canons in the closet

Ellen...

The flowers on Crete in September should be fantastic.
1. You need this book to for inspiration and education before you go - Flowers
of Crete<http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/184246079X?ie=UTF8&tag=grahamrice>
2. And take two tripods - just in case you need a spare! (Actually, the Benbo
Trekker <http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000BZLCZ?ie=UTF8&tag=grahamrice>is
quite light in weight.)
