A reminder: the Global Asias MAP informational webinar will be held in two weeks (May 10th) at 7:00 p.m. EDT. To register, visit bit.ly/GAMAPinfowebin…

Color Series: Indigo January 11, 2005 Italy Sony Cybershot DSC-P93 Indigo's a tough one. I'm kinda guessing here. Unfortunately, I don't recall exactly where in Italy this was taken, except that it was at a point in the trip when we were doing day trips to towns in Umbria.
