It's a small world when you're gazing at ten world photos and one of them happens to be your old neighborhood! These are beautiful shots. We scurry, as human beings, to create the world the way we want it. Then we scurry to remote shores to relax?

It's a small world when--- you're gazing at ten photos and one of them happens to be 'a place you know well'. Amazing and beautifully compiled. We scurry to make the world the way we want it. Then we scurry to remote shores to enjoy the untouched. ML
