From Travel - Vietnam

  • A view of Manhattan from Greenwich Village south to Wall Street as seen from the observation deck of the Empire State Building.
  • The medieval hill town of Civita is connected to the rest of the world by a pedestrian bridge after an earthquake destroyed the natural land bridge years ago.
  • An old-fashioned amusement park with a beach boardwalk and an old wooden roller coaster.
  • The Kobe Tower is a landmark in the city of Kobe. Rising above a series of geometric shapes, the tower stands out against the sky.
  • The statue of Harubang is a common symbol of fertility on Jeju Island in Korea. Couples will touch his nose for good luck.
  • The Great Wall of China winds up and over the mountains near Mutianyu in Beijing Province.
  • An empty stone stairway in the historical section of Zefat, Israel. Zefat (or Safed or Tzfat) has been considered one of Judaism's Four Holy Cities, along with Jerusalem, Hebron and Tiberias. The city has remained a center of Kabbalah, also known as Jewish mysticism.
  • The Samuel Beckett Bridge is the newest bridge to cross the River Liffey in Dublin, Ireland. The modern structure is curved in the shape of a harp and uses cables, like a suspension bridge, to maintain the structure.
  • The front stone facade and main tower of the St. Giles Cathedral in Edinburgh, Scotland. The historic landmark is in the middle of the Royal Mile in the center of the city.
  • A broken window provides a frame to view the urban cityscape and residential neighborhood of the Wallacedene Township in South Africa.
  • A large marine sea turtle (chelonia mydas) swimming in a lagoon in the Galapagos Islands of Ecuador.
  • The ruins of St. Anthony's Chapel remain as a single wall in Holyrood Park in Edinburgh, Scotland. In the distance, the Scottish National Monument on Calton Hill is visible at the left.
  • A panorama view of Table Mountain from the park at the top of Signal Hill looking out over the city of Cape Town, South Africa.
  • A ramshackle beach shack or lean-to in the tropics with an advertising sign on the surfboard sticking up through the roof. This casual sales office provides minimum shelter from the elements as well as a location for a surfing, snorkeling, and watersports business.
  • An urn in a Buddhist temple filled with incense and larger prayer sticks. This had so many prayer sticks in it because it was taken during the moon festival.
  • A ceremonial urn filled with smoking incense sticks. This display was in a Buddhist pagoda in Vietnam. The woman in the background is obscured by the swirling smoke.
  • A view of the Prague Castle and the Charles Bridge from across the Vltava River.
  • The Strada is the main shopping street and gathering area in the city of Dubrovnik in Croatia but before 8am it is still virtually empty of people. The cobblestones have been polished smooth over hundreds of years.
  • Castle Minard is an old castle on the west coast of Ireland near the Dingle peninsula, destroyed by an explosion several hundred years ago. The stones on the nearby beach provide foreground interest.
