The Tour Du Mont Blanc is a 170 km circular hike around the tallest mountain in the Alps. Starting in France the track passes through both the Swiss and the Italian Alps before returning back to France. The spectacularly placed Rifugio Elisabetta is located on the side of the hill next to the GL (Glacier)…

In Arizona there’s a small town called Jerome. Jerome was the epicentre of copper mining before being deserted and then lovingly restored into the trendy chic town it is now. These couple of guys had just ridden into town and were having a bit of chuckle outside one of the many bars. What they were…

The only road out from the eastern side of Yosemite is, Highway 120. It climbs up to a height of over 3000 metres through the Tioga pass. Lake Ellery was one of two lakes near the roadside just before reaching the highest point. It was early morning and the fresh clear air made for good…

North west of Seattle in Washington state USA, is the Olympic Peninsula. It’s main attraction is the very wet rainforests, coastal scenery and the odd body of water like this one here, Lake Crescent. On this day the weather was pretty average but if you waited long enough enough light would appear to give you…

Random images from my portfolio. Comments and question always welcome. The low cloud over the Columbia river gorge near Portland presented itself perfectly.

Dubrovnik is a beautiful place but it can be overrun with tourists. I took this from the city walls looking straight down the Placa which runs from one side of the old town to the other. I love the reflection from the tiled street. Makes it look wet.

Another in series of random images from my portfolio. Comments and question always welcome. One of the many advantages a full frame DSLR has over any other camera with a cropped sensor is the shallow depth of field. Here on the city walls (ramparts) that surround the beautiful city of Dubrovnik the views are sensational.…

In a dusty corner, in the Karadjozberg mosque in Mostar, three Korans were sitting on the window sill on book pedestals in the sunlight. To me it was a tranquil spot that begged me to make a picture and this is result.

Thought I’d start a series of random images from my portfolio. Always welcome any comments. Caught these two guys gently ambling along a Mostar (Bosnia) street. I was touched by the younger guys obvious affection. What’s their story? Father and son? Good mates? A stranger helping an old man?

Our trip to Croatia started in Split and ended in Dubrovnik via a small sojourn in Mostar in Bosnia Herzegovina. What a place that is! Almost destroyed in the Balkans war through really no fault of their own. Caught between two enemies Bosnia became the theatre of war and somehow it has managed to raise…

One of the most intriguing delights of Croatia is their ability to make a café out of any small space. Got a couple of steps – sure why not? Small alley with only just enough space to walk down – no problem! It seemed that around every corner there was someone serving coffee to a…

Arguably the prettiest palace in Venice’s lagoon, Burano is known for its lace industry and the colourful houses that line the streets and canals. Legend has it that the fishermen in days gone by wanted to see their houses from afar as they returned after a hard day’s trawl. A walk along the streets will…

To the north of Venice proper away from the madding, seething, cruise ship throng found in San Marco there’s lies two islands, Murano and Burano. They are just two of over 40 islands in the Laguna Veneta that surrounds Venice. Of course both of these attract (and indeed, need) tourists but at least they have…

The famous balcony is just off Via Mazzini where users of iPhones, compacts and DSLR’s blaze away hoping for that one different shot. Didn’t like my effort, so you won’t see it here! What you will see here is the Madonna Verona (which actually dates from roman times) that sits on the fountain in the…
