Best of LLworldtour- Photography

Photography is one of my biggest passions.

I’ve been doing photography since I was a teen — developing my own film in our school’s darkroom, taking photos for my high school and college newspapers, working at a photography store (when more of them existed), and eventually working professionally in video and television. So of course, photography has always been an important component of LL World Tour. And I know that sometimes the best part of reading a travel blog is looking at the photos, so I’ve collected all of my best travel photography posts in one convenient list. Get ready to armchair travel to some amazing places!

    Great compilation! I still love that black cab London pic! (And of course the Brooklyn Bridge…and there’s just something about that Columbia pic regarding the kids’ expressions you captured!)
