No problem! Glad you like them! These are St. John mainly from April of this year.
No order whatsoever.....
Previous pictures are:
1) high atop Upper Peter Bay overlooking Jumbie Bay with Lovango Cay in the distance
2) Dennis Bay just off the beach
3) Dennis Bay beach looking north
4) high up again looking at Francis Bay with Mary Point in the background
5) Brown bay from the water with Tortola in the distance

Nothing too fancy. It's a Canon PowerShot 450 - digital elph.
It's on a 5 mp camera but I'm finding it takes very good pictures with great color!

Great Pictures!!!!

Nice pics. I'd love to see more. Don't know if you're willing to provide a link over to where you keep them online.

You know, there's something about nightime photos. I've always thought of the Love City mini mart as cheery and welcoming---maybe a little rundown in a pleasant, tropical way. But it sure looks kind of disreputable when photographed at night. Sort of place i might be a little reluctant to go into, but a place where I'd figure something pretty interesting could happen if I were to go in.

OK, more pictures!! I can't say I'm not flattered!! It's just making me REALLY want to get back.
Lex, I'm kinda new to this so everything that I have on photobucket is here, too. I just upload to photobucket and then
copy them here.
Once again, no order whatsoever...

The proverbial Trunk Bay overlook

Trunk Bay!

Waterlemon Cay

Two shots of one of our favorite beaches - Salomon

East End from Bordeaux

Sandy Cay from our "boat for a day"

Me at White Bay JVD - Gotta love the color of the water!!

The Beach Bar - Cruz Bay

Francis Bay beach - our favorite "quiet" beach - I know - should be Coronas...
