NEW 7 Wonders of the World...

Having visited all of the 7 NEW Wonders of the World I figured I would share my photos. I went to the official  website and saw that there were altogether 20 places in the running for the finals. Of the 20 in total I have been to 18 of them. 

Christ the Redeemer, Brazil

Taj Mahal, India

Chichen Itza, Mexico

Petra, Jordan

Great Wall of China

Machu Picchu, Peru

Coliseum, Rome

Travel for 2013 with my Nikon D800 in tow...

Purchasing my Nikon D800 last year gives me the incentive to fly around the world and take so many more photos that I used to. Knowing the quality of the camera gives me the guarantee that I will end up with some great shots. If you own this camera you know what I mean.
Lenses that I use are the Nikon 14-24mm, 2.8, the Nikon 28-70mm, 2.8 and the Sigma 70-200mm 2.8.

So far I have been to Reykjavik, Iceland in January which was amazing. The natural wonders: beautiful landscape, geysers, waterfalls, volcanoes, glaciers and the Northern Lights. One of the most amazing experiences I have every had was watching the Northern Lights, it is a must see. 

The new trips so far are going to be Mumbai and Goa, India and Cancun, Mexico. In Cancun I will be going to Tulum and Chichen Itza to explore the ruins. 
Hoping to head to South Africa in August with some friends. 

If you have any tips for me for Mumbai, Goa or Cancun please send me some ideas to

Where did you travel to in 2012?

People always ask me where was my favorite place that I traveled to, it is almost impossible to answer. Having seen many parts of the world I do have some favorites but let's save that for another day. In 2012 I had the privilege to go to Mexico City, Istanbul (2nd time) and Easter Island (most people do not even know where Easter Island is...Here is a map to see...over 2,000 miles off of the coast of Chile).

I am going to attach some links to my flickr account for those 3 trips...

Finally finished posting my Photos on Flickr from Mexico City, Easter Island and Istanbul...

Having done a tremendous amount of traveling over the past couple of months I finally found the time to post my Photos on www.Flickr.com. 
As many of you know, if you take a 1,000 photos at least each trip it takes some time to fix and get your photos done for others to look at. 

Here are the last 3 trips...
