You really want to get that stamp though. When you leave, someone will want to know when you entered the country. Flores is a neat little town, refuge of the Itza people when Hernan Cortez came romping through in 1541. I love the ruins too but I…
Give me nature of some sort: geology, insects, birds, lakes, trees (even dead ones hopefully in some distant land like Namibia), all that kind of stuff.
Back home after 5 weeks in France, Spain and Morocco. 4500 pictures taken, mostly with my new Panasonic GH1. Lots of architectural pictures (my weak suit, I admit), people (another weakness) and lots of religious stuff (strike three). Still, there…

Hi,
I'm 68 year old blogger, former computer programmer and (more or less) intrepid traveler/photographer/blogger. Use a 3 year old Panasonic DMC-FZ18 and yes, I could have afforded a DSLR. I deliberately chose an 18x zoom, sealed and complete…
Aly and John,
I think you're onto something with making sure you point your lens toward the unusual or the unnoticed. Here's an African shot that tightens the focus on a well-know subject.
Hi,
Love the group. Love the website. Probably wildly out of place here but there you have it. I'm kind of in a niche like Karen just below: newbie, travel writer, retired,travel photographer (was not a pro). Love what I do. Just found the…

J,
Know exactly what you mean. My Peru blog was panned by a friend: too many words, we want PHOTOS! So, I give 'em photos which is a big part of the reason I travel and the reason the blog isn't deadly dull. Hate blogs that are all words,…
Suzanne,
Great looking wiiiide format. Love that. I do like a dark format for photos, however but being a wp.com kinda guy, I can't upload anything. I'm just learning, though. I'm very impressed with bringing in header photos on the…

Any place I can afford and have never been. Well, neither one of those is true, actually. We go back to Central and South America and I WOULD go back to other places to. My wife thinks we can NEVER afford to go. Oh, yeah...I love to take photos.

I think it is never too soon to start networking!
I really want to go to the TBEX 12 conference to get some fresh ideas in content creation, promotion and other related to my travel blogging!
Right now I'm trying to find some live groups in DC…
It's never too soon to start networking and building your relationships with other travel bloggers, editors, etc., Shanna. Attending conferences is one way to do that. That said, some conferences are better than others. I'll have to let…
I have a 2 month old travel blog that I have been working very hard to establish. What I am trying to figure out is how soon is too soon to start attending travel events and conferences?Will it be a boost to my blog at this point, or will it be a relative waste of time? Is it too soon to start networking and making contacts? What do you think?Have any of you attended any conferences or events, and what was your experience?Thanks so much for your input,Shanna…See More
