I had to laugh when I turned a corner and saw this scene while wandering through Roatan late one evening. The late night snack run and social hangout for the kids in Roatan Honduras is the local Coke stand and friendly neighborhood bodega; just like anywhere else in the world.
Sunday Morning Cycling
On Summer Sunday mornings you can usually find me riding somewhere in the foothills of Northern Colorado. I rarely take a camera with me. I want to just enjoy the ride and if I find a spot that’s worth photographing I’ll go back later and take my time making some images. Going out photographing with fellow cyclists at ideal times …
Old World Cassette Shop
Sometimes you turn a corner and do a double take. Am I really seeing this? Yep, that is a shop filled with nothing but cassette tapes. The thing that is both beautiful and frustrating about traveling in Morocco is that the country is stuck in an ancient time and happy to remain so. We stop in Fes for a rest …
Medinas of Fes Morocco
Of all the market images I have from Morocco, this one from an afternoon lost in the Fez Medina is one of my favorites. I was there at the New Year which meant the streets were ridiculously crowded. I went into the streets with just my camera. I didn’t take the tripod because if I wasn’t in the way of …
Jaffa Streets in Israel
When I wandered into Jaffa I was expecting an old seaport fishing village. As it turns out Jaffa is home to incredible restaurants, galleries and shops. I only had an hour to spend here one afternoon, but hope that I can return. It happened to be Purim and everything was closed so all I could do was take some photos of …
McGan Monument at Truc Bach Lake
McGan Monument at Truc Bach Lake in Hanoi Vietnam is a prized monument commemorating bringing down a U.S. fighter pilot during the Vietnamese War. I debated about whether or not to share this but it was important to my guide who was giving me the local flavor. My “tour guide” in Hanoi drove me around on the back of his motorcycle …
Fir Lake Pagodas
The Sun and Moon Pagodas on the Shanhu (Fir) Lake in Guilin China. This wasn’t something I was looking for. I was just out for a stroll around town. I guess these light up beautifully at night, but I was on my way somewhere else and stopped just long enough to take a shot during sunset. I couldn’t find a …
Temple of Heaven
The Temple of Heaven in Beijing is a stunning place to see. I’m talking about the main temple here, not the entire park. There are smaller temples and buildings scattered around the park too, but the building you really want to see is the main temple.The temple is surrounded by a giant courtyard so that anyone who wants to attend …
Beijing Architecture Honors Old Traditions
Beijing Architecture varies widely because so much history is still alive and preserved here. Everywhere you go around Beijing you will see old and new structures side by side. There are definitely plenty of high rises and office buildings that remind you this is a modern mega city. The Olympic Village and the Bird’s Nest are good examples that the …
Ping Pong Park in Beijing
So you thought they practiced Kung Fu on every street corner in China eh? Not so. There are lots of parks around China, mostly for gathering and working out in groups around one shared interest or another. This one is specifically a ping pong park. Not all of them are welcoming to just anyone and in fact this one is …
Shanghai Neighborhoods
I had never been to Shanghai and didn’t know what to expect. Just down the street from a nice gated hotel where I was staying I wandered into the Shanghai Neighborhoods to see how they live. I followed a family to this street where they disappeared into the first door on the right in this picture. They live there. I’m …
Lost Highway Phone Booth
I found this phone booth on PCH, Pacific Coast Highway 1 in California. There is almost no cell phone reception along the coastal highway and there are actually several of these phone booths to be found at stops along the coast. I stopped at Nepenthe in Big Sur to get some dinner and rest for a bit, then I walked out towards …
