“Travel is not a reward for working. It’s education for living”
Anthony Bourdain

The building blocks of photography combine focusing, exposure, zooming, and framing with the ingredients of space, time, light and color. The enhancement of the images - done by refining their shape, color balance, contrast, exposure, and sharpness - is what helps with the presentation. The image is still a snapshot in time. It is what it was when it was taken. No matter how well-travelled you are and how many of the world’s wonders you’ve seen with your own eyes, you’ll still want to thumb through these stunning photographs gathered from the world’s most spectacular places!

Photography satisfies my own visual curiosity - the imagination follows where the light leads it to. I work with what I find, I work unconcerned for propriety, custom or conscience.

It is ART AS IT WAS - I was just fortunate enough to be there to paint the image with my camera.
