A photo taken south of Bordeaux overlooking the beautiful vines adorning a typical French estate. A black and white shot taken at the top of the abbey Mont St. Michel in northern France. An interesting exposure of a room in the middle of the Mont St. Michel abbey complex in Northern France. The stone arches supporting the abbey of Mont St Michel often can unnoticed, but they are more works of art than simply structural supports. Just off the coast of Spain in the Mediterranean Sea lies this strategic fortress, built stubbornly at the foot of a giant rock, called Gibraltar. A long exposure photo of the ancient ruins of the Roman forum taken in the twilight hours in Rome, Italy. This is a shot of the Vatican taken from the top of nearby Castel Sant'Angelo, on the banks of the river Tiber. The pastel colours of the low rise buildings decorating the canals of Burano make for a beautiful backdrop. This is an artful shot looking up from inside a stairwell inside the legendary Arc de Triumph in Paris, France. A lovely shot of a merry round near the base of the famous Eiffel Tower, near the banks of the river Seine in Paris, France.

In ancient Athens, there once stood what must have been a mighty and impressive temple dedicated to the god of gods, Zeus. Today, little remains... Located in the Roman Agora in the ancient part of Athens, Greece, this temple has been partially rebuilt since ancient times. Just outside the city of Barcelona, deep in the nearby hills lies a monastery called Santa Maria de Montserrat. This shot was taken from nearby, looking away from the majestic hillside. The original wooden roof of a church not far from the hustle and bustle of busy La Rambla in the Spanish city of Barcelona. A cropped panorama from the top of the Arc de Triumph in Paris, France. Snapped in Athens in 2010, we were amongst the first to ascend the Acropolis that day, and managed a rare shot with almost no people around. The city known as Rhodes Old Town benefits from an amazing port with crystal clear waters and spectacular weather. Taken from on board the Celebrity Equinox leaving Portsmouth bound for the coast of France in 2009. An amazing shot of the northern French abbey, Mont St Michel, from a distance. At the end of the Camino de Santiago, a famous pilgrimage route leading through northern Spain is this impressive Cathedral which today hails from the year 1075 AD. This is at the entrance to the Capela dos Ossos in the city of Evora in Portugal. The macabre nature of the chapel is well and truly masked by the opulent detail which welcomes you. A look inside the Capela dos Ossos, or Chapel of Bones, located in the Portuguese city of Evora. Features a warning at the entrance: “We, the bones that are here, await yours." This is a photo of one of the famous Barbary Apes of Gibraltar, sitting precariously against the backdrop of the nearby Spanish countryside. This is a photo underneath the massive dome of St Peter's Basilica in the Vatican City. The pavilion-like structure in the centre stands 30 metres tall! This is a nice photo of the Tiber river which slowly runs through the centre of the 'Eternal City' - Rome, Italy. Venice's most famous place certainly has a lot of vacant seats. This is a nice portrait shot of the world renown square on a beautiful Summer's day in 2009. Up close, the Arc de Triumph is an tall and impressive arch, but a view of this famous Parisian landmark from atop the Eiffel Tower puts it into perspective. This is not, as you might anticipate, the Statue of Liberty who graces the harbour in New York, but rather a photo of the smaller scale version who rests along the river Seine in Paris, France. Taken in 2009, this black and white exposure captures the majestic tower bridge opening with the iconic white tower of the Tower of London to the left. One of the highlights of my visit to London in 2009 was a visit to the British Museum. This shot is from the Great Court, which is simply spectacular. Taken on board the Royal Caribbean's Brilliance of the Seas departing from Barcelona in Spain in 2010. Looking up from 3rd deck, the design feels almost alien. Taken at the St. John's co-cathedral in Malta, this church originally was quite spartan, but over many decades the wealth here amassed as the Knights of St. John prospered. Taken at Antoni Gaudi's Park Guell in Barcelona, Spain in 2010. Taken in Barcelona in 2010, the Basilica is seemingly always being further developed, decades after the death of its architect, Antoni Gaudi. Taken in the Spanish city of Barcelona in 2010. This is typical of a downtown block in the Gothic quarter, just off La Rambla. A nice black and white rendering of the staircase spiraling through Christopher Wren's "Monument" in the heart of London. In the heart of the "Eternal City", Rome, there is a great fountain - the Trevi Fountain. This is a portrait shot from our visit there in 2009. This is a nice shot of the rich interior of St John's Co-Cathedral on the island of Malta. Its rich heritage is owed to the successes of the Knights of St John, who relocated to Malta after leaving the island of Rhodes. Taken in Rome, this is the interior of the famous Colosseum, post-edited with a sketch filter. This delightful snap was taken in 2009 when we visited the charming old world town Burano, about 45 mins by ferry from Venice, Italy. Taken in the north of Venice, most of the city is a postcard waiting to happen! Taken while visiting the ancient capital of Greece - Athens - during our trip in 2010. Great detail on the seat, the graffiti really stood out. This is a HDR-processed shot of the arch of Septimius Severus located in the Roman Forum in the ancient part of Rome. The arch is still in excellent condition, especially compared to the rest of the forum. We have here a black and white rendering of a shot taken inside the ancient Trajan's marketplace in Rome. I had trouble trying to capture the raw detail of the structure whilst contrasting it against the sheer size of the marketplace itself, the contrast seemed better in black and white - especially for the foreground.
