Actually, I only used a Nikon coolpix S610 with the automatic adjustments. I used to be more of a adept of photography with my old 35 mm, but nowadays when you travel, it's handy to use the small apparels and they do take great pictures. I used a function of Nikon to work some of the pics internal to the camera and I may have worked a couple on the PC.

WOW!
Hi Jean-Luc, amazing pictures! I'm very curious, I'd like to learn more: what camera, lense(s), filters etc did you use? I'm too lazy to learn to use cameras for setting the apreture etc. myself, maybe you did, and if so, what settings, if you don't mind sharing?

I do know you have 'manipulated' the pix because not all the 'full-size' dimension match, and that's good, I do that too. The 'focus' can be cropped to be better :)

Way to go, this set is probably the best I've seen here.
