I've always had an appreciation for photographers because they manage to capture everyday objects and locations in a completely new light. Having lived in Leeds for the best part of 2 years I kno...
There's a saying that goes "the best camera is the one you have with you" and over the last couple of years I've found it to ring true. With advances in lens designs and processor speeds it's now...
I don't know how many of you have this problem but my laptop is filled with multiple gigabytes worth of photos that never see the light of day. Although each post is carefully curated there are h...

I would consider myself somewhat of a shutterbug. During my endless mindless wanders I take pictures of things without really thinking about where I'm going to use them in the future. The City of...
Just strolling through Rome left me with an unforgettable experience. When you're surrounded with that much history and culture a little bit of it does rub off on you. When I woke up in my AirBNB...
They say all roads lead to Rome and that's exactly where we ended up on the last leg of our European adventure. After visiting Greece and France and spending a few days living on a boat, a few ho...
