August 6 is the deadline to register for our upcoming photo tour to Iceland from Aug 27-Sept 6, 2010. What separates this tour from other Iceland photo tours? For starters, our Icelandic guide/driver is one of the country’s top nature photographers, so we’ll benefit from his insider knowledge, such as the best places to see...
Amid cobblestone streets and old European buildings that let you know you’re not in the New World, Toto, stands a church that Ripley’s Believe It or Not would’ve loved to have found.

We recently traveled through central Morocco, and spent a couple days in the Sahara Desert. Temps in July reached 107 degrees, so plans to overnight in a Berber tent quickly changed to air-conditioned accommodations in a renovated kasbah-turned-hotel.

These photos were submitted by Dan Macal from California, taken on our Yucatan photo tour in Mexico. These were his first attempts at HDR. Using 2-3 exposures, he merged them in PhotoMatix Pro. Impressive!
