Vernazza’s my favorite town in Italy’s Cinque Terre, and its cute and uber tiny beach is a popular place to hang out in the town. Granted it’s not much of a beach, but these people are making the most of it. If that’s not your thing, you can instead grab a bite to eat or [...]
View of Downtown San Francisco from Twin Peaks (Photo)
Because of San Francisco’s many hills, it’s not hard to get great views of the city from many different places. But the view of downtown San Francisco from Twin Peaks is one of the best. When it’s not foggy in San Francisco, this spot will give you access to killer views of the city and [...]
Sunset, New York City (Photo)
The Hudson River Park along the western shores of Manhattan is a great place to get some exercise (or perhaps just watch other people exercise if you’re feeling lazy. ;). But it’s also a lovely place to catch the sun setting over the river. There are tons of benches along the way where you can [...]
Driving Alaska’s Denali Highway in the Summertime (Daily Photo)
Alaska is friggin’ huge. It’s 1/5th the size of the entire lower contiguous 48 states. It’s more than twice the size of Texas. That’s a lot of land. And that’s why you will often see sweeping landscapes like these in many places all over Alaska. It’s nothing but pure, untouched wilderness. This photo was taken [...]
Old Faithful Geyser Erupting, Yellowstone Park (Daily Photo)
They don’t call it Old Faithful for nothing. This famous geyser in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming erupts with surprising regularity so if you time it right, you’ll likely have the pleasure of seeing the boiling water and steam reach high into the sky during your visit (the average time between eruptions is about 90 [...]
Boat Harbor in Valdez, Alaska (Daily Photo)
Valdez is not the easiest place to get to. In fact, it’s kind of a pain. But I guess that’s also what makes it more special because you have to work a little harder. Here’s a photo I took on a gorgeous summer day in Valdez, with green snow-capped mountains, opaque blue water and boats [...]
Sunrise over the Teton Mountains in Jackson, Wyoming (Daily Photo)
The Tetons are a magical place and I particularly like visiting in the summer. Here’s a photo I took near Jenny Lake Lodge in Jackson, Wyoming. The birds were already awake and chirping and there were a few moose grazing in the pasture below. Otherwise there was very little activity and all else was quiet.
Colorful Sunset over the Mediterranean Sea (Daily Photo)
There’s not much to this image, just the Mediterranean Sea & some colorfully-lit clouds during sunset. Though the sun wasn’t setting directly over our view of the ocean, it was still mesmerizing to watch as the colors slowly shifted and were reflected by the sea. Ah, Italy.
Misty Kentucky Sunrise (Daily Photo)
Some of you may remember seeing images from the ’70s that kind of looked aged and yellowy. They just seemed old in their own way. I don’t know, it’s kind of hard to explain. But I remember seeing these images on old greeting cards and sentimental wall posters. Stuff like that. Well when we were [...]
Upper East Side Taxicab, NYC (Daily Photo)
It’s funny because in some ways New York City is a contradiction. On the one hand you seem to have busyness & motion all around you. And then on the other, there’s nary a soul nearby. One chilly Spring day in the Upper East Side, this street was nearly deserted, save for one single cab. [...]
