On my last trip to Amsterdam, I happened to show up at the Rijksmuseum at the right time for a stunning twilight and blue hour.  Though sunset was non-existent, the rest of the magic hour was really beautiful! 

Taking a cruise in a fjord is something I have wanted to do for a long time, and it finally happened when I was in Norway last Fall.  Here's the summary of that adventure, along with a bunch of pics showing you the majesty of Lysefjord.  Sit back and enjoy!

Today I take a photo from Copenhagen and walk you through my workflow for creating this HDR.  I use Aurora HDR Pro and create several layers in order to apply presets and selectively target them to specific parts of the photo.  It may sound complicated, but it's easy!  Join the fun!

There is just so much to photograph in Amsterdam - it's a very beautiful city.  Today's post takes you along on a virtual tour of some of the sights, and I talk about how I created these images thanks to a couple of tricks that helped turn them from bright, sunny images to give more of a Fall look.  Enjoy!

Stavanger, Norway is a quaint but beautiful little town.  I visited last Fall and today's photos were captured during a stunning blue hour there one evening.  I wandered the streets and basically had it to myself.  I wondered where everyone was, but wasn't complaining.  Enjoy the pics!

Today I share some shots from various trips to London.  I have been working to catch up on these things and move a little closer with today's post!  London is a gorgeous city and I hope these photos help illustrate my love of it!  Enjoy!

One fine morning in Dublin, I was out and about and happened upon a beautiful sunrise.  I share those photos today, and talk a little about split-toning and HDR as well.  Enjoy the pics and if you get a chance to visit Dublin, take it!  It's a beautiful city.

Today's photos are a brief selection from my last visit to Copenhagen, which is a lovely city!  I just wandered there a bit, and came home with a lot of photos that I really like.  Plus I talk a little about split toning, which I am starting to experiment with more and more.  Enjoy!

Does sleep ever with out over your desire to get out and shoot?  Sometimes it does for me, but generally not when I travel.  I often fight it off for as long as I can stand it, so that I can get in some more shots.  Today's post is a few photos from a stunning sunset in Montpellier that I would have missed if I hadn't been so stubborn!

It's a big fat post about the cafes in Paris, yay!  :-)  I spent a week in Paris more than a year ago, and just got around to processing some of these shots.  I started with one, then another, and ended up with 11 photos of cafes in Paris.  I hope you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed being there taking them!

Falkirk, Scotland is a small town not too far from Glasgow, and well worth a trip over for exploring.  The Falkirk Wheel is a boat lift technically, but really it's an engineering marvel and a very interesting thing to go see and photograph.  Check it out!

Well, here's something you don't see everyday.  It's a blog post from me with photos of people in it.  Yep, real, live humans.  Of course, they were swinging fire torches around and breathing fire into the night like a dragon, so I launched into full "extreme portrait" mode and fired away!  It was awesome, too!

Today on the blog I whisk you away to that lovely Scottish city, Glasgow.  Some think it's "not all that", but I disagree.  Here's a photo collection showing you some of the beauty in Glasgow!

Once again, I spent some time in a train station - this time it was Copenhagen's Central Station.  It's a beautiful spot, and I learned that no matter how many times you have been somewhere, you can always find a new way to look at things.  Read on!

How about a virtual trip to a fairy-tale castle in Denmark today?  Sound good?  Ok, let's go!  Here is a collection of pics I took at Frederiksborg Castle in Hillerod, Denmark earlier this year.  It's a beautiful place!

Back in April I spent a few days in lovely Glasgow, Scotland and caught a pretty stellar sunset one evening.  Here are 5 pics that show you just how beautiful it was!

On my recent trip over to Europe for business, I found myself in Aberdeen Scotland and had a free day on my hands.  What did I do?  Went looking for a castle, that's what! And yes, I found one - it's a ruined medieval fortress on the coast - awesomeness!

Today I share 5 HDR photos that I captured one fine morning in Copenhagen, Denmark.  It's a beauty of a town and at sunrise it's even more photogenic than normal!  Enjoy these shots of Nyhavn, the historic harbor front district in Copenhagen!

Today, I share the glory of Pulpit Rock in Norway, with commanding views of the fjord below it and beauty as far as the eye can see.  Dive in and enjoy!  This place really exists!  :-)

Today I recount a punishing hike in Norway and share the pics I took along the way - good times!  (exhausting as all hell, but well worth it!)
