Traveling with my Camera

The Beauty of Everything Norwegian

NORWAY

Traveling is one of my favorite things to do. You need time and money so it doesn't happen as often as I would like it to.

When I do travel I always bring along my camera to capture the moments! It seems every time I go some place I see the terrain and elements of light in a whole new perspective. The shots are not all lined up and in order. They have gained character and substance as I have grown older and wiser. Nothing has to be perfect it only has to be.

Norway's Midnight Sun

Holding the Midnight Sun Norway was our destination. My husband and I spent two weeks exploring the cities of Bergen and Trondheim as well as the Islands along the western fjords. Our Norwegian relative tour guides told us we could not leave Norway without experiencing their midnight sun. We searched for the best place on one of the Islands and found it! The midnight sun was glowing across the horizon off the coast of Norway deep into the summer night. There was a thrill just for being on top of ancient rocks that lined the coast of the Atlantic as the light was starting to fade in the distant horizon. Our words and laughter seemed to echo across the rocks as the waves crashed high into the air. We were not only enjoying the view but the sounds and smell of the open air of the salty ocean. The glowing sun became a light in our hands as we stood and faced the camera. As a couple we “held” the sun ...

Seattle Aquarium 2018

Seattle Aquarium We loved visiting the Seattle Aquarium this past summer. There was so much variety and the exhibits were bursting with colors as pictured below: I think pictures tell a story sometimes as much as words. The staff at the Aquarium can be just as entertaining! If you haven't ever visited this great venue in Seattle, then you are missing out on a very educational experience. It is conveniently located at Pier 59 on the Elliott Bay waterfront among the quaint shops that line the harbor area. Check out their website Seattle Aquarium for events, tickets, and location. It is fun for the whole family. If you are a tourist or Washington resident that loves to be a tourist in this awesome city, then check out the discount tickets at CityPass .

Rocky Ridge Safari in East Texas

Under the clear blue skies of East Texas is a gem of a drive-through wildlife and safari center called Rocky Ridge Safari that hosts over 25 different species of animals amongst the 200 acres of native trees and smooth red clay winding roads. A friend asked me to go with her while visiting family in Texas, and I didn't hesitate to say yes! I couldn't believe my luck in the backwoods of Eustace, very close to Canton, was an incredible drive through wildlife center. The trip was a perfect opportunity to do an animal photoshoot and hopefully shoot some great pictures right from the front seat of my friend Linda's car. We headed out early to be the first car in line when it opened at 10 a.m. since we knew the animals would be hungry and eager to make their way to our car. When you buy your ticket, it also comes with a good size food bag for feeding with each one. The animals were very eager to see us or rather the food we were handing out. I'm not sure I have a favorite f...
