Most of the time when I’m in this area I take photos which are of this particular building, and indeed the spot where I am standing. This time, however, it was nice to get a shot from the entrance of...

I’ve just spent 4 lovely days in Venice, and my feet are pretty sore because of it. On my final day I was fortunate enough to have some mist, though found it was pretty unpredictable. In the morning...

Yesterday my image was of the Constitution Bridge, and today we have Ponte degli Scalzi, the bridge of the barefoot monks. Yes, it’s the second of four bridges which cross the Grand Canal in Venice,...

And finally we have the fourth bridge to span the Grand Canal, the Ponte dell’ Accademia, a nice old wooden bridge. As with all of the other bridges I have featured this week, this one is popular with...

It’s rare that I post an image straight out of camera, and this is no exception – but it is pretty darn close to it. I straightened the building on the left a little as it looked odd at the natural...

Venice is full of lots of little alley ways, and it’s very easy to get lost in them if you don’t have a map or know the directions. This particular one is just off St Mark’s Square and I really liked...

Route 66 seems like such a long time ago, and I have a lot of images to go through of that trip and a few others from this year – and indeed the same will go for my other trips that are yet to take...

The Trevi Fountain in Rome is quite magnificent, and was luckily one of the iconic sights in the eternal city which had completed the work it was having done to it and so was unimpeded by scaffold or...

If you ever visit the Angkor Complex in Cambodia, may I suggest that you stick on a pair of headphones and wander around attempting to find areas where there are less people. It was by doing this that...

I can’t for the life of me remember where this little village was. I know it was in Italy. Or Austria. Pretty sure it was Italy though. After a while all of these picturesque villages started to look...
