A perfect day in Howth

If you ever find yourself in Dublin, Ireland and are looking for a quick escape from the city, consider taking a day trip out to the little fishing village of Howth.  It's a short train ride away, but it feels like you went much further.  Here are two dozen (!) photos from a trip I made out to Howth earlier this year.  Enjoy!

Highlights from a week in Paris

Have you ever heard that Paris is beautiful?  No?  I didn't think so.  :-)  I spent a week there last Fall, and captured so many photos that I still have plenty to process.  But although I shared these in some spots, I never got around to writing up this summary post about the trip and sharing the photographic highlights - until now!  So dive in and enjoy these 23 photos from the fabulously beautiful City of Light!

A big bunch of Dublin stuff!

There is just so much to shoot in Dublin, and so much to love about it.  I really enjoy my visits there, and always come home happy (and with a few memory cards that are bursting at the seams!).  Today I share 22 photos from my most recent trip to Dublin.  Lots of street scenes and pubs in this one, so beware...you might want to hop on a plane after this!

The Eiffel Tower from Trocadero

There is just so much awesomeness in Paris - starting with that iconic symbol of the city, the Eiffel Tower.  On my last trip there, I shot it a LOT, starting with today's photos which are from The Trocadero.  It's across the River Seine from the Eiffel Tower and as you can clearly see, offers up a pretty incredible view!  Have a look and enjoy!

A primal morning in Copenhagen

On a recent morning in lovely Copenhagen, I headed out with just one lens (my 15mm f1.7 prime) and just one purpose - to capture some beautiful photos of this city that I just love to visit.  Did I accomplish my goals that morning?  Was my self-imposed limitation of just one lens "good enough"?  Well, here are 23 photos that show you what I came back with.  Click on in and you be the judge!

Morning at Nyhavn

On my recent trip to Copenhagen, I got up early one morning to head over to Nyhavn, their historic harbor front entertainment area.  It's quite beautiful, and I fired a lot of photos.  I made a concerted effort to shoot it differently than I have in previous trips, and I think I succeeded.  Take a look at these 12 photos and let me know what you think!

An awesome sunset in Copenhagen

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!

Lots from London

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!

A bit of this and that from Brussels

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!
