That shot of the mountains reminded me of one I took.

Shot in RAW for this and I'm still getting used to all the tweaks i can make, still don't know what half the tabs are for. I used UFraw plugin for GIMP.

Ah this sucks! I wanna work on some photos that I've taken here in Spain but don't have Lightroom or Photoshop on the new MacBook I bought. Are there any programs pre-installed or free to download for Mac that'll let me do some minor post processing before I head back to Australia at the end of the month?

Lovin everyone's shots. Elvis, you're a great photoG'er man.

Something like this what you're looking for?
Raw Photo Processor (RPP)

I don't have a Mac so I'm suggesting blind here.

Did you ever get that Tokina for your architecture photos? How'd it work out?

A FRUITFUL WITHER

[brianward81]

Just took some 30 second shots of the Madrid skyline with my new Canon 70-200 f4 L USM hermits lens. The Tokina COULD be purchased here ad the Canon lens was $450 cheaper here than in Australia. I thought the architecture photos weren't going to happen as I hadn't heard anything more about since I posted about it. BUT 2 days before I left on this trip I was told there'd be work shortly after I get back. Woo!

Thanks for the tips, will investigate tonight
