On my recent trip to Copenhagen, I had hopes for good shooting, but the weather forecast did not look promising.  Couple that with a missed connection in London, and I was sure that my first day there was going to be a bust.  But sometimes Mother Nature (and travel complications) work out for the best!  I ended up shooting a fabulous sunset - and here are 22 photos (count 'em!) to illustrate just how great it was.  Have a look!

Today's post is a showcase of 18 images from my recent visit to Falkirk, Scotland - specifically to a pair of sculptures known as The Kelpies.  They are quite impressive!  Take a look and enjoy the photos!

I really love the city of Amsterdam.  Most people think of it as a place to go party, but not me - it's a place to take beautiful photographs.  There is just so much loveliness in Amsterdam - have a look at today's crop of 12 photos and let me know your thoughts! 

I seriously enjoy going to London and taking photos - it's one of my favorite cities, and I find it rather beautiful.  In fact, when I am there, I find it hard to sleep because I want to be out shooting so much!  So in an effort to get more of my London shots "out there" for public consumption, here's 17 more that I hope you enjoy viewing as much as I enjoyed taking!

It's hard to beat a great sunset.  We all know that.  But when you are in France and you get a great sunset?  Well, that's something to write home about!  Or in this case, write a blog post about.  :-)  

Here's a few pics to enjoy - and I sure hope you enjoy them.  I definitely enjoyed being there and taking them!

Have you ever been to Berlin?  It's a lovely city, though I have only been there for about 6 hours, as I describe in today's post.  But what a great 6 hours it was!  One of the highlights was hanging out here at Checkpoint Charlie - so much history, and so interesting!  Have a look!

Here it is - a monster post about Brussels, Belgium!  It's one of my favorite places - hey, it's famous for chocolate and beer, so what do you expect?  I've got 20 photos in here, so click in for a look and have a read too.  I ramble a bit about how these posts come about too, in case you were wondering.  Anyways, hope you enjoy the photo tour of Brussels!  It's a wonderful place!

I love architecture - a LOT! - and when I find something like this place, I'm pretty fired up. Here's a quick photo tour of Hay's Galleria in London.  Just something I literally stumbled upon - and almost missed!

Whiskey, bridges, a church and a jail - not your normal collection of shots!  Today's post doesn't really follow a "theme" like many of mine do.  This is rather just a group of shots from some of my trips to Dublin that I happened to have ready, but which don't necessarily all go together.  But I think it does give you a nice tour of some cool spots around this lovely Irish town...so click on in and have a look!

Paris is a beautiful city - that's basically an undisputed fact.  But on my recent visit there, I found beauty in lots of unexpected places - including inside a cafe, inside the Musee d'Orsay museum.  Here's a visual tour of the place, which is the home to many of the great works of the Impressionists.  Enjoy!

It's always hard to get up early for anything - even if it's something you love, like shooting sunrise.  But then again, you can't shoot sunrise any other time of day except morning, so an early rise is sort of a requirement.  So I did just that when I was in Montpellier, France a while back - and it was well worth it!  And it was an amazing sunrise!

Do you ever find yourself in the wrong spot when the light gets awesome?  Yeah, me too.  So I do what any sane person would do - RUN and find a good spot!  Luckily, I didn't get hit by any of the bewildered Parisian drivers!

Ah, the beauty of Notre Dame in Paris!  And even prettier with a huge Christmas tree out front!  Click on through and have a look - there are 7 photos for you to enjoy today my friends!

Here's a collection of shots from a FABULOUS sunset I shot recently in Montpellier, France.  Although I was tired from no sleep on the flight over, I just could NOT resist getting out and exploring a bit.  Then to get rewarded with such great light - well, let's just say I was pretty dang happy!

How about some iPhone shots from my recent visit to Paris, France?  Sound good?  Great!  Here you go!  This is 10 iPhone pics from that beautiful city we all love.  Take a look and let me know your thoughts!

Today's post is 4 images from a marvelous sunset in Copenhagen that I took a while ago, but converted to paintings for your viewing pleasure (and a side-by-side comparison).  I think they look pretty awesome.  And there's a MASSIVE Cyber Monday deal going on at Topaz Labs, the makers of some of my favorite editing software - click on through for details!

I was in Montpellier, France last week and found it to be awesome.  As you can imagine, I gunned a MASSIVE amount of photos, but I am still in France (yay!) so today's post is a collection of 10 iPhone shots from last week in the lovely southern French city of Montpellier!  I think you are going to enjoy these!

Have I ever mentioned that I love train stations in Europe?  Haha, well ok, maybe I have.  So keeping with that theme, here are 6 photos from the grand interior of the train station in Leipzig, Germany!

I'm back at it - sharing a HUGE collection of photos from a trip I took to Bratislava, Slovakia.  But this isn't your normal post, featuring some landmark or well-known sight.  This is 16 photos of the little things I found there while wandering with my camera.  Take a look!

I am always carrying a list with me when I travel to any city, and the list contains all the big, important things I hope to photograph while I am there.  And I think that is a good thing.  But equally - if not more - important, is noticing, enjoying and photographing the little things that you see while out there.  They add a lot to your experience and enjoyment of a city.  So today, here's a few of the "little things" I enjoyed in Amsterdam!
