When I saw Petra in Jordan and then again last week when I visited the Taj. Both of those times I was in awe, jaw on the floor kind of awe.
I couldn't wait to see the Taj for years....and then when I finally did, it was more grand and more beautiful than I had even imagined. Here are a few done with the 70-200 and the wide angle:
Some of the other volunteers who have now become lifetime friends. We had so much fun whenever we were together.

allright, i guess you take pretty good pics.
all we need now is the creepsters taking pictures of us instead of the taj and you pretty much encompassed what it is to be there.
that and the poses on the last pic are just good indicators of our personality. from martin's face, to alex's look,zahira's asian pose, liz just smiling, birte punching me, tess' hands and smile, emily's grope of alex and whatever you're doing...it captures us pretty well.
btw. im right now waiting in the emergency room waiting to see if i got leprosy... no joke. my foot has been numb for some time now, and it apparently is the first sign of leprosy. ill keep you updated.
WOW! These are fantastic... that 3rd one is Ah-freakin'-mazing. Really wow. Great job Ruby... can't wait to see more!
Ruby!
We're amazing!
From "Farida-really-damn!-bad" to the Taj, I think we did pretty well. It is amazing to think about what we went through and how strong this has made us.
Remember walking to the post office close to the Taj? Where everyone just stared at us and pointed which way and we walked like it wasn't a big deal. While the first week in India we were uncomfortable, scared and unsure if we did the right thing. We came a far way! The pictures as well are amazing. It was definately great and I am glad we ALL got along. I love our group. They are the best. I am glad I have 15 other people that know what we went through and will laugh knowingly when we talk about India, they are the only ones that'll understand! Can't wait to exchange more pics!
I love you bunches!

P.s. I really hope Yves is oK!!
beautiful shots I knew you would come back with something awesome. And you did!
You seriously take the most bomb diggity ass images ever when you travel ( and here of course too but your building images, my goodness )
WOW! First I'm so happy you are home safe. What amazing and beautiful pix. When you captured the Eiffel for us (then my movers scratched it which I had fixed thankfully and now hangs in my guest room), I now see that I will have another RR original hanging in my house! You captured the emotion of you and your comrades beautifully and the Taj! Seeing you tomorrow is the best birthday present I could ever get. Can't wait. Love You Sincerely My Angel, Natalie

Wow! I'm speechless just from looking at your first image....can't imagine how it would have been to see it in person.

Ruby, wow I am blown away, I was just thinking about you, I came to check out the blog and see what you were up to. Wow, I've been sitting here reading all about your journey, reading in amazament about the adventures and growth of your trip. I'm even crying like a dork about some of your stories, not just the sad ones, but even the beautiful ones, of your own personal journey. I cannot wait to hear more! Lunch is on me...call me when you get a chance.
Ruby! You rock the portraits, but girl, I think your speciality is travel/archeticture (sp?) shots! THESE ARE AWESOME!!!!!! Just beautiful!! Frame worthy in a gallery somewhere!
Gorgeous as usual. The second picture apart from being stunning, also reminded me of a picture I saw of princess Diana who stood where you took that shot from. These are very emotive pictures. Wonderful Ruby. Thanks for sharing your images, and your heart with us all.
Ruby, hon so glad you are back. I've missed you dearly but it sounds like you had an amazing experience there! Cannot wait to hear about all of it and possibly live a little bit of your jouney through your stories. Love and miss you!
