Well, not really but it was a fun drive from Eastern Slovakia through the Czech Republic, Germany, Holland, Belgium and France until finally returning home to the UK. Keeping to our schedule meant little time or opportunity to take photos, but we did stop at a friend's place in Stara Lubovna in Slovakia and in Breclav in the Czech Republic. Most of these are of the High Tatras Mountains in Eastern Slovakia, a beautiful part of the world peppered with castles and fortress ruins. Thus, as much as I would have enjoyed spending more time to see the scenery and in varying light these were all shot on the fly, some from the car.It was a great time and a surprisingly enjoyable drive back, and we made excellent time. All these images were shot with the Olympus 12-40mm F/2.8 or 60mm F/2.8 mounted on my E-M5.

I will be in Germany and some other European countries between Sept. 14 and Nov. 15. This is a trip to my home which I left for the US fifty years ago. Do you have any advice about what lenses to bring along. I do have the pro zooms and several primes except for the Oly 300. I would appreciate your advice.

Hello Karl. On most of my travels I bring my usual kit of the Olys 12-40mm f/2.8, 60mm F/2.8, and 45mm F/1.8. I find they tend to cover most things. If there is a chance of shooting wildlife then I'll also bring the 40-150mm F/2.8 and MC-14 teleconverter.
I hope you have a great trip and collect some rewarding images. :)
