Hi Michael,

We will not have any photos to share with you until we get back from our first trip to Culebra next month, but really enjoyed the photos you posted and have forwarded them to the rest of our gang.

Thanks for sharing, alashas http://honeymoon2.smugmug.com/

I would love to see captions with them, for those of us who don't recognize where they were taken.
Thanks for sharing!

The title of the image is in the browser window as well as above the ads - I guess that's not visible enough - is it? Oh and on the overview page youcan just hover with your mouse and it will tell you the title!

Enjoy Culebra!

Wow, that was easy. Those are all mine, I've got A LOT more!

Is there anyway to take a pic off? My flamenco pic is on there twice.

I put up a few pictures from last April. The rest are on the hard drive of my currently "broken" computer. I'll put up pictures of Christmas with the children when we get back!

Yes it is.... a Muscovy duck. He and his mate came and shared our breakfast with us everyday while we camped a flamenco. They'd beg for food and wag their tails... it was awesome!

Maybe I should have a whole section about the birds that one can find on Culebra ..

Eventually I do plan to filter the images by subject and then display them accordingly - so the people who have not been get a better idea. But that's the future :)

So far it seesm to work pretty well - the upload I mean - np?

Enjoy Culebra!

Those are not mine. Those are all the pictures that people already uploaded (including the few in the beginning that were mine). Maybe it's too simple? ;)

Navigation: click on them to see bigger version. says right there.

Should there be more? If so, what?

Enjoy Culebra!

I guess people seem to be uploading without any major hurdle. I am going to start promoting it a little more on the site so we get lots of them and you first time visitors can get a really good idea :)

I would love to see more self timer type photos, like 'me and her on our bikes'

Thanks for all your input!

Enjoy Culebra!

Yes Micheal, that was the photo of which I mentioned..it is Luis Pena.
I emailed several others through snapfish but that did not post. Not sure what happened there.

What do you mean, you 'emailed them through snapfish' - isn't that more like a 'print your photos' type of service?

Enjoy Culebra!

Yes, snapish is used to print photos but you can also email them as a group of photos or individually.

Shoot, Michael! I just uploaded 7 pictures, and they now appear but won't enlarge when I click on them. I guess I should have sent them at original size rather than smaller size???

Oy - do you mind redoing it? The tool is meant to upload the original photos, yes. Most people don't even know how to resize pics ..

Please, upload the original ones! I will then delete the small ones.

Cheers

Hi Michael,

Thanks for posting the aerial photo that I sent you a couple of days ago. I thought it might be a bit too large, and am glad you received it. I'll send a few more in the next day or 2.

all the best, alashas http://honeymoon2.smugmug.com/

Hola Michael,

I posted a few more photos, including a couple more aerial shots. On my larger version of the aerial photo of Playa Flamenco that I posted on the site, I am able to see the (tiny!) tank at the end of the beach.

I also posted a pretty good aerial shot of Cayo Luis Peña, however, the site apparently does not like my spelling of "Peña," because it changed it to "PeÃ±a." I do not know if you can edit it, or delete it, and I can add it again if necessary.

We posted a couple of shots of Zoni, and more of Flamenco. We figured, sooner or later, people might be interested in seeing the tanks, so we included both of those. In addition, we did not stay at the campground, but also thought people might be interested in that, so we added a couple of photos of the campground, as well as the concession stands (great food, btw!). My daughter took an amazing photo of the sunlight coming through palm fronds, and another great shot of the sunlight on the beach, and we added those, too.

Hope you enjoy them, alashas http://honeymoon2.smugmug.com/

Hola,

Someone posted a night shot of Dewey, so I added a couple of additional ones of Dewey at night with Christmas lights, as well as one during the day of the same scene. Per the request for underwater shots, I posted a couple of Carlos Rosario snorkeling photos that my son took while most of us were diving with Capt. Walter Rieder of Culebra Divers. We had a great time diving in Culebra, but I haven't had the opportunity to edit my scuba photos yet. I am sure I'll post a photo or two of those (:>)

all the best, alashas http://honeymoon2.smugmug.com/

Hola,

We were very impressed with the new school on Culebra, Escuela Ecologica, and just posted a few photos of that beautiful facility. That is also where "Three Kings Day" was held on Jan. 6, so I posted a couple of photos of that event. We took the children seasonal candy, as well as local candy that we purchased at SJU before flying to Vieques and Culebra. In addition, we packed a dozen t-shirts from our church, Park Street Christian Church, in Charlottesville, VA, that has our name on the back, and our nick-name "The Happy Church on the Hill" on the front and those were a big hit! We could have given out many more of those.

All the best, alashas http://honeymoon2.smugmug.com/

I recently finished editing my scuba diving photos and added some to this link. Culebra has a # of outstanding dive sites, and I had a a difficult time deciding which photos to post! I selected a variety from each of our dives and will also be posting a trip report with more information about our dives, and our trip to Culebra, including links to additional photos.

cheers, alashas http://honeymoon2.smugmug.com/
