The world has some pretty amazing natural wonders to see, and giant falls rate up there with the best features of our planet. You have Niagara Falls which borders Canada and the USA, Angel Falls in Venezuela, Victoria Falls which sits on the Zambian and Zimbabwean border, but not to be outdone, Iguazu (which means …
Ever since I visited Russia earlier this year, and to be more precise Moscow, I wanted to do a post on ‘Stalin’s Seven Sisters’. It’s the sort of thing that appeals to me I guess – something to see, to hunt out in a city and say you saw them all. What are Stalin’s Seven …
Hi all! The final 'Through My Lens' for the year, and I'm taking you to Argentina where stunning Bariloche (or as the town is known, San Carlos de Bariloche) just cannot be beaten, especially when the weather is as it was when I was there. High 20s for the most part and beautiful blue skies. …
Border town. (well, actually still a wee bit from the border) Dry. Dusty. Hot. The last town in Burkina Faso before I moved on to Mali over ten years ago now. I don’t remember much, perhaps because there wasn’t much to remember, but I do remember that the streets were wide, and I didn’t see …
The idea of exploring an abandoned town, I must admit, is kinda of exciting. Here in Australia abandoned towns are often cordoned off – certainly abandoned buildings in Melbourne are barricaded and people are forbidden from entering, but in Japan there are apparently a few places you can visit. I was inspired to write this …
Happy Sunday to you all. Is that a thing? ‘Happy Sunday’? Well, it can be now! Shanghai… staying in North Asia for this week’s city of choice, is a mega-tropolis of which you can find quite of a few of these days in China. However, you may not find one quite as ‘modern’ and shiny …
Happy 'Hump-Day' to all. Today's photographic presentation takes us to Malaysia. Now, I will be the first to admit that many of these photos are not particularly amazing, but Malaysia was the first time I started using a digital camera. An old Canon, can't remember the exact model, but it took photos in an amazing …
Wham bam thankyou Mam! Tokyo is a city with everything. It’s an incredible combination of skyscrapers, neon lights, parks and shrines, salary men and cosplayers in the Harajuku area. It has Maid Cafes, a Robot Restaurant (still to visit for me!), two Disney theme parks, a tower, a Skytree, and incredible metro system, brilliant museums, …
Actually, this is a tale of two cities rather than one versus the other. But it seemed to fit along the lines of a City Rumble in my head. Islamabad is the somewhat modern capital of Pakistan, and so close they basically kiss each other is the much older city of Rawalpindi. Islamabad was built …
