Seven Super Travel Photos
Hostel Bookers is running a game of photo tag and were kind enough to include us in their inaugural post. I love going back through photographs that I haven’t looked at recently. Each one tells a story and reminds me of a precious moment in time.
Egypt – A photographic journey
Are you ready to see a different side of Egypt? Being our second time visiting this Middle Eastern jewel gave us the chance to look at it with a different set of eyes. Yes, the pyramids are mesmerizing, but having seen them before, we could look beyond their majesty and take in the atmosphere around us.
Our Favourite Photos of 2011 by Destination
This past year was an interesting one. We got to re-visit some places we had already been but more importantly we got to take in some of our dream destinations for the first time. We thought the best way to show you why we loved all the places we visited was through our favourite photos from each country. So sit back with a cup of coffee and come travel with us for a few moments.
Winter Photos: Cold can be Beautiful
The First Snowfall happened this weekend here in Ontario, Canada and it was beautiful. The world can be stunning in winter. Many people dread the coming snows but we are really looking forward to spending a winter at home in the Great White North. After waking up to a blanket of snow on Friday morning, [...]
Picture Perfect Portraits: Children of the World
Picture perfect portraits tell so much about the subject. When we travel, we meet so many sweet and curious children around the world that absolutely love having their photos taken.
Astana, Kazakhstan: The City at Night
You aren’t alone if you didn’t know much about Kazakhstan. Before going there, we had never heard of it’s capital city Astana, we didn’t know anything about architecture or its people and we didn’t really know what countries bordered it.
A Visual Delight in Chiapas, Mexico
Last week we had the chance to visit the Adventure Travel World Summit in the city of San Cristobal in Chiapas Mexico. They couldn’t have picked a better location.
The Contrasting Country of Kazakhstan
Most people when they think of travel to Kazakhstan they probably think first of Borat and then photography of big open landscapes. Since we didn’t happen to see Borat in Kazakhstan we thought it best to use the landscape as an example.
London Landmarks in Photos
When you head to jolly old England do not miss these Landmarks! Big Ben, St Pauls Cathedral, Tower Bridge, Painted Hall, London eye. they are top tourist attractions for a reason.
Petra by Night in Photos
Petra by night is something special that you should not miss when you travel to Jordan. Seeing the ruins at night gave them a certain mystique you do not get during the day. You really get the feeling that this is how the ancient spice caravan travelers must have seen it.
Beautiful Canada a Land of Four Seasons
Canada is great for photography throughout all of the seasons. Summer, winter, spring or fall in Canada will not disappoint. From Banff, Alberta to Algonquin Park, Ontario these HDR photos show the beauty that you will discover the next time you are there.
Thaipusam: The Second Time Around
Thaipusam is a Hindu Festival that happens in Malaysia. Celebrated during the full moon of the Tamil month of Thai, Thaipusam draws thousands of devotees paying their respects to the Lord Muruga.
Thaipusam…The first Time Around
We were introduced to Thaipusam 6 years ago in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia at the Batu Caves. Two Travelers told us about this crazy festival where people put spikes through their cheeks and hooks in their backs. It was the most amazing spectacle we had ever seen. Six years later we are witnessing our second Thaipusam
China at Night; A Photo Story
When the sun goes down China’s cities come alive. At night each city bursts into a neon work of art to welcome the dark. Historical sites, town squares, skyscrapers and street vendors. No one can escape the electric glow in a Chinese city and really who would want to.
Our Favourite Photographs by Country 2010
Our favourite travel photographs by country of 2010. We had amazing photo opportunities during our travels to 10 countries in 2010. These are the best moments we had.
New York 9/11: A day to Remember
Today marks nine years since the towers came down in New York City. No event in my lifetime has had such an impact on the world, changing the way we live forever. While war still rages on and people are still dying today, let us pause and think of the innocent people all around the world that are affected by the actions of a small few. Let us hope that one day soon violence will not be the answer.
The World in Black and White: A Photostory
With the advent of digital cameras most people don’t really think of photographing in Black and White. Well I think people are missing out. If you look back over time you will see that some of the most striking and evoking photographs were taken in Black and White. It gives images a certain impact. Ansel Adams is a perfect example.
National Geographic Destinations, We’ve captured them too!
We thought it would be fun for this Photo Story Friday to compare some of our photo’s to those of National Geographic. We tried to choose photo’s that were places we had been before and had a similar subject matter. In doing this it was a great learning experience.
The Flora and Fauna of Alaska: A Photostory
Alaska is full of Flora and Fauna that if you spend enough time here you can literally see it all. From Bald eagles and Humpback whales to beautiful wild flowers and amazing National Parks. Alaska really has something for everyone.
Discovering Egypt: A Photo Story
Discovering Egypt was a lot of fun. From Cairo to the Valley of the Kings, Egypt has so much to offer. Weather you are looking for adventure or luxury Egypt has it all.
