I was starting to say I love that little cluster on the left, but really I love everything - the photos, the shaded map, the word strips (some work!) and I always love negative frames. Hard to believe anything can get near cholla! Gives me a pang as we missed our trip to Palm Springs this year, where I would always enjoy the cholla and other cactus while hiking.

Love how the map ties the two pages together. The journaling on paper strips is very cool

Love the map and the style of journaling - great double page!

Love these pages. Great photos. Great idea to do the journaling on strips. Love the addition of the map. Great job all around!

Amazing photos again. Love all about this page, but especially the added map in the background.

The title font looks like the calligraphy of the curved-bill thrasher ... perfect.
I like the light coming in from the top to line up with the light in the corner of the photo.

Well I do love everything, but especially your bird photos. They are my favorites.
