Google's top 10 most searched photogenic spots in the US in 2022 - some might surprise you!

Eileen Tan/Dreamstime.com Google recently released its list of its most popular searches during 2022, and when it comes to scenic spots in the United States there are some surprises.

Work being slower than in prior years - fewer weddings, couple's shooting, and visitors in general - has allowed us to work on our underwater photography.

Just got back from guiding a group on an amazing trip to the Tambopata Reserve in Peru. Somehow, while traipsing through endless jungle trails, I managed to scratch the 55 mm lens of my Nikon D-5000.
