powertower 19:06 UTC 05 Jul 2011 | Hi, I am a professional travel photographer and will be one week in the Solomons. What would you recommend me to do in that week to get out the best photos from the Solomons! Thanks Michael www.michaelrunkel.com |

ozziegiraffe 12:34 UTC 12 Jul 2011 | Basically, it depends whether you want postcards or culture. | 3
powertower 09:11 UTC 13 Jul 2011 | I guess i am more interested in Postcards or do you think both is manageable to do in seven days? Where would you recommend to go in Marovo? What apart from diving can you do there? Thanks MIchael | 4
ozziegiraffe 12:44 UTC 13 Jul 2011 | That is the one area of the Solomons I have little experience of, so can't really give you much guidance. Have you looked at the Visitors Bureau website? | 5
powertower 17:11 UTC 14 Jul 2011 | Yep i even contacted them but no reply unfortunately. Have you been to Ghizo? | 6
ozziegiraffe 11:43 UTC 15 Jul 2011 | Only once, by a ship that no longer exists, at night, and I visited friends, not anwhere you could stay. It is usually spelt Gizo. | 7
