Landscape & Travel Photography in Uzbekistan is a small vlog with some sobering thoughts. During August 2021 I was commissioned to photograph Uzbekistan on a journey that circumnavigated the country. About 2/3 of the way into that journey the team and I were in the town of Termez which borders Afghanistan. During our stay the country fell into the hands of the Taliban.

Part 1 of the Abandoned Railways and Disused Stations of France shows what’s left of the and stations between Chinon and Loudun. France is famous for its high speed TGV but beyond this there are many rural lines that have been closed but are still intact as well as the infrastructure that goes along with it.

How I Recce Landscape Photography is a warts and all look at what goes through my mind when I see a scene. What I am thinking with regards to the composition and then execution of the final image.
