Far and away

This is a gallery of places, distant in space and time, as most of the pictures were taken more than 20 years ago. All the pictures have a particular meaning to me, although I can understand that sunsets can be more or less the same wherever you see them... Anyhow, paraphrasing Chatwin, the question is: "why am I not there right now?"...
