LOS GALAPAGOS: Images

It was remarkably easy to take nearly two thousand photographs while in the Galapagos. Beauty abounded at every turn. However slow internet connections make the taking of a photo with my camera, sending it to my phone, then uploading each one to this site extremely time consuming. I hope in the future I will share more and correct some glitches. In the meantime I welcome you to share these moments with me.
