My apologies for the delayed response...
Thanks to many people who have commented on these photos
(Christine, John, Brian, Jack, Attila, Daniel, Tim, P.J.).
The place is spectacular, - but it is one of those spectacular areas that
are more spectacular when you breeze and feel it, then can be transmitted
via photos.
Tim: I also had a thought that similar view can be found alone some NorCal
shores. But that's one of the things, - Baikal is such a huge lake.
I am hoping to sort the rest of the photos some time (soon?), and will
post some of those...

That would be this one...

Yep! Exactly!
I've been wearing it since that much more than I expected... It is
actually very comfortable. Unfortunately it might be ending soon, as it is
getting old. When it happens, that would be a sad moment... I doubt I'd be
able to visit Sidney soon to replace it. But so far it's going strong.

Hi All,
If anybody was wondering why I was silent recently, -
I happened to be at a scientific conference that was near the lake
Baikal -- the largest surface fresh-water reservoir in the world.
"It holds about 20% of the world's fresh surface water - more water than
all of the North American Great Lakes combined." (WWF:

Here is the "First Crop" (c):
