A Kazakhstan Cowboy
Kazakhstan is like the wild west. At least in the eastern part of the country. This particular day we were re visited at our camp from the young Cowboy who made a silent appearance the night before.

West Lake in Hangzhou, China at Sunset
West Lake is considered one of the most romantic places in China. Located in the center of Hangzhou, the honeymoon capital of China, it offers its residents visitors a haven from the city surrounding it. After a day of walking around the lake itself I saw this boat stop off in the distance.
Twilight in Toledo, Spain
Spain is full of beautiful cities. Toledo is yet more proof of this. Wandering around Toledos small narrow streets and soaking up the spanish culture just puts you into a state of relaxation. Toledo is still the religious centre of Spain. Locals often refer to Toledo as ‘La Ciudad Imperial’ (The Imperial City).
How to Photograph People while Traveling
I love photographing people when I travel. I feel the faces of the people I meet give you an insight into their lives and bring you closer to what it is like to “be there”. There are a few simple techniques and tips I use to make sure to capture the moment in its true form.
Travel Photography Tips: Available Light
Light is one of the fundamentals of great photography. Shooting with available light is something every aspiring photographer should strive to master, or at least understand.
St. Kitts Mariott Resort in HDR
I decided to try out some HDR photography while I was there. Now this is my first attempt at a true HDR image. I took 3 different exposures; -2 0 +2 stops from our balcony. It is very important to use a tripod as any camera shake will be VERY noticeable. I chose to shoot just after the sun went down to give me more of a dramatic sky and just that hint of twilight. I also liked that there was a calm breeze which allows me to show motion in the trees.
The Sudanese Desert….on a bicycle
What comes to your mind when you think Sudan? Desert? Sure. Cycling? Not really. Well that is exactly what we did, we cycled from Cairo to Capetown via the Sudanese desert.
Old Growth Forest, Banff, Alberta, Canada in Black and White
Banff, Alberta is known for it’s beauty. You have the Rocky Mountains, Lake Louise, Glaciers and so much more. But in my opinion it is the old growth forest that gives you a glimpse into what this landscape would have looked like 100′s of years ago.
The Black Desert of Egypt, Africa
The Black Desert in Egypt is something to see. Most people visit the Black desert on their way to the White desert ironically. The desert as you can see is not black per se but is covered in small black rocks which contrast against the orange sand.
