I'm posting my book because I got some great ideas from looking at how others did their own books and thought to return the favor. My book is of our family vacation to a few US National Parks in Colorado, South Dakota, and Wyoming this summer. I don't have a supersonic camera, and I'm not a semi-professional photographer. Just a mom taking pics of the kids and some really beautiful scenery in our national parks. Also, I didn't photoshop any of the pics (I'm not even sure if I know what that means. LOL!). Nonetheless, I love the layout, the pictures, and how easy it was to use the MP software.

Maybe on my next book, I'll try to use some of these photo enhancement softwares. I am very impressed with how spectacular all of these books are.

I'm expecting my "classic" books to arrive today - can't wait! The books are going to be Christmas gifts for grandma and pappy - they went on the vacation with us.

I just wanted to say that I loved your album. You got some great pictures. It really makes me want to do another road trip with my wife and 6-year old daughter. Your pictures of Yellowstone made me miss that place even more than I normally do

On our last road-trip, in 2005, hit many of the same spots you went to: Devils Tower, Mt. Rushmore, Wall Drug, BadLands, Wind Cave. Your album really brought back memories and made me want to go back and re-visit those places - especially Yellowstone.

Anyways, thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the feedback! I loved Yellowstone sooooo much! What a great family vacation area.

And thanks MP. I received the books today and OMG are they ever wonderful! Grandma is going to be so happy this Christmas! They really are quality. Nice binding, great paper quality. The book jacket quality is very nice, too.

you got some really awesome shots here. The full bleed landscapes are pretty stunning. And I love the waterfall photos.

one thing you might want to consider when it comes to flower photos is to focus on a single flower bloom up close instead of all close but not too close shots of a number of flowers. Or if there is a whole field of flowers that makes a good shot too.

WOW! I am very impressed. You say you are not a photographer, but your pictures tell a different story. You seem to have an eye for photography. I have been making family yearbooks for 4 years now, and we all love them, but they pale in comparison to yours.

Your pictures make me want to get out there and see the places you show in your book.

Thanks so much for sharing!

Super NICE book, loved it. You should be very proud of it! I am new to MP so I was just looking around at different designs. Thanks for sharing. I am very excited to get out and get some great pictures and put them to use.
