Mandatory Panoramas

No real news folks, but we're back in Cappadocia, which really requires panoramic photos in order to show off the weird landscape. It frustrated me last time that it seemed impossible to really come to grips with the landscape using my camera. I'm not really better at the photography part, but now I can use my laptop to stitch some more effective shots together; check them out below.

And finally another old one I dug up, this one near Chak Chak (literally "drip drip"), just out of Yazd, Iran.

We're off to an as yet undecided location tomorrow; possibly Amasya, possibly Nemrut, possibly direct through to Erzurum. Maybe we'll just wait and see where the first bus heading east goes and check it out :)
