Hey NN thank you for your complement. :-) I took the image in a Carmelite Monastery in the walled city of Mdina in Malta. I am laying on the floor with my camera mounted on a tripod looking up at the ceiling. It was a challenging shot to take but it turned out ok, I'm glad you like it.

Martin, nice photograph! Did you place the camera on the floor of a church? And were you in Turkey?

Hi everyone this is a great group, The thing with travel photography is even your home is travel to someone else. But when your on the road with camera in hand it's quite the intoxicating feeling.

Discovering new places, interacting with people, making new friends and in the end your image is your interpretation of your inner vision and experience. Photography and travel photography is my life!

A new gallery of photographs of Frederiksborg Slot, the largest Renaissance palace in Scandinavia. Shot on a glorious crisp, sunny and cloudless day in Hillerød, Denmark last weekend. The castle houses Denmark's National Museum with its awe-inspiring collection of fine art, portraits and furniture. A highly recommended visit - allow a full day to take it all in at a leisurely pace.
