Back from travels

I have been away for most of the last month, and - while it has been a very enjoyable and fruitful time - I am glad to be back home for a while.
I have just returned from Llandudno, North Wales, where I spent two weeks on a course called Face to Face, run by OM. This is a course designed primarily to give input to those in ministry in need of spiritual refreshment. I found the course very helpful, and made some good new friends. The location was also very restful, and we were blessed with beautiful scenery, good weather, and dramatic sunsets. You can see some of my photos from North Wales here.
Before that, I was in the US just for a week. I spent a great time with pastor Billy and my good friends at Hatteras Island Christian Fellowship, who have been a great encouragement to me over the last few years. It was great to be able to share with them my ongoing vision for the work in Burkina Faso. We also had a lot of fun together, and they even got me on a surfboard for the first time in my life. I was also taken climbing up the Prow in Linville Gorge by some other friends - an exhilirating, if somewhat nerve-wracking experience. This was a challenging climb for me, but was a mere stroll in the park for my friends, who were very encouraging and patient with my fear and inexperience. Thanks again, guys. I'm still kicking myself that I didn't take my camera with me.

Hey Keith, you take beautiful pictures! What camera do you use?
I'm actually travelling to Bolivia in January to hopefully learn some Spanish and volunteer in an orphange. While I'm down there, I want to take pictures that really capture the moment. Any advice on how you do that? :)
