New York City ‘Snapshots’ part I

Sep 18th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

New York City is a place that I have been lucky enough to explore on more than one occasion. A city like this deserves no itinerary, and as an eternal wanderer, New York is the best place to get lost. You’ll find much more than you intended just wandering the streets. The city is so [...]



Photography: The Sahara Desert.

Sep 8th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

The desert is a vast expanse of Sand and Rock which covers most of North Africa. From the Red Sea on the East coast of Egpyt to the Atlantic ocean, exists the Sahara Desert. Our adventure began on the West side of the mighty desert, and we followed the Atlantic coast most of the way [...]



Photography: Istanbul, Turkey.

Aug 31st, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

Turkey occupies a fairly influential location, on the cusp of Europe and firmly planted on the edge of Asia and the Middle East, and at the crossroads of so much history. Rising out of the remains of the Ottoman Empire after the end of WW2, Turkey has become a major player in the world, and [...]



Photography: St. Petersburg and Moscow.

Aug 26th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

Moscow isn’t the destination that most travelers pick out as their first place to set their sights on, but for some people it is. I was one of those people. This was back in 2001. After graduating high school we worked for a year, and then in March, we decided to just go away. Stewart [...]



Photography: Southern England (2000).

Aug 13th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

England has such a long history dating back thousands of years, from Roman to present times, and the number of historical landmarks just littered across the landscapes, in between towns, is just staggering. Trying to see all of them in one trip is impossible, and England isn’t a very large country.  These photos are from [...]



Photography: London, England (2000).

Aug 7th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

When looking at the great cities of the world, both in historical importance and modern day relevance, London usually finds itself near the top of both. A major transit hub, as well as a destination of itself, thousands of travelers descend on the city on an annual basis, and it never disappoints. I have been [...]



Photography: Welsh Castles.

Jul 31st, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

Our adventures in England lasted for just under a month. After flying into London, and covering the south coast from Brighton to Land’s End, we finally ended up in Bristol, where we stayed with a friend of ours from Canada. While staying in Bristol over the Christmas holidays - a vacation within a vacation - [...]



Photography: South Coast of England.

Jul 22nd, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

After leaving the African continent during our 2008 trip overseas, we came to the conclusion that we were not quite ready to go home, and decided upon spending a month traveling around England. From Accra we flew to London - with a short stopover in Casablanca - and parted ways with our travel companions, who [...]



Photography: The Gold Coast.

Jul 6th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: Featured Photos, PHOTOGRAPHY

The Gold Coast has a long and troubled history that stretches back for hundreds of years. It was colonized as early as 1482 starting with the Portuguese and changed hands many times; the Dutch, the British, the Swedish and the Germans all occupied forts along the coast at some point. The Coast was used as [...]



Photography: Saturna Island, British Columbia.

Jun 29th, 2009 | By Rob | Category: PHOTOGRAPHY

British Columbia is one of the most beautiful places on Earth. The provincial border on the eastern edge is the Rocky Mountains, and to the west lies the Pacific Ocean. There are uncountable vistas and photo oportunities in between. These photos from Saturna Island, were taken almost a year ago today, on Canada Day weekend [...]
