We invested US$4.50 to buy a CD containing photos of Thailand
with excellent results. It contained 100
high quality, professional images of Thai Arts & Crafts with both TIFF & JPG
versions of the photos.
We have selected the best photos of this collection.
The weakness of the collection is that it comes without
description; where we recognize it we have indicated, otherwise it's
"just" a photo of Thailand.
