Samos | Greece
An Era calendar without a photo of Samos – Nah! This is Shannon’s first attempt at making it. The setting is just outside Tina’s village of Vourliotes. The village in the background is Kokkari and Turkey is not that far away either.

The Lone Cypress, Pebble Beach, California | USA
Alex tells me that anybody who knows anything about golf knows about this tree. Really!!

Kay and Bob did the Grey Nomad thing around America. She took a 1000 shots on her iPad. Not bad eh!

St Paul, Nice | France
James seems to take lotsa photos of France. I’m not sure where St. Paul is, but I’d love to know who wears the red polkadot underpants!

Santorini | Greece
Sunset at Santorini. What could be more romantic? I’m told however the donkey ride to the top isn’t so… And, it’s definitely on the bucket list.

July - Rhys Waldron

Grand Canyon, Arizona | USA
Yes, I too can picture myself just sitting and sitting and drinking in the majesty, tranquillity and grandeur.

Pamukkale, Denizli | Turkey

Would you believe that this place was once called HiERApolis – which means ‘Holy City’. Now the hot springs are known as Pamukkale. And the love of my life, even took her shoes off and waded around. Nice!

Kangaroo Island | South Australia

A French lady taking a quintessential shot of a gum tree and Koala. And they’re not “Bears” by the way. They are marsupials.

October - Zorana Brnovic

Kanchanaburi | Thailand
With Zorana it was a tossup between a church and this one. The tiger won. The empathy between man and beast is overpowering.

November - Dave Weir

Queenstown, Otago | New Zealand
I’ve taken the same shot, but not nearly as good as Dave’s. And his looks too good not to have been Photoshopped.

Maidenbower, Crawley, West Sussex | UK
This does something for me. It looks and feels cold! And reminds me that one year I promise to take the whole family to a white Christmas.
