Skywatch Friday- Dusk Colors at Gir, Gujarat
The dusk settles at Gir, I was at Gir as a part of the Skoda Yeti ROWE Team. For more beautiful pictures from around the world please visit the Skywatch page.
Meet the Skoda Yeti ROWE Team
I thought I would write a little about the people who are working behind the scene at the Skoda Yeti ROWE. I also asked each of them before posting if I can write about them and use their pictures on my blog (including Luke Kenny). Each of them agreed that they would not send their…
