Travel Photography – Streets of Toledo, Spain

While walking through Toledo there were so many small alleys and beautiful streets. This street caught my eye in particular due to the amazing textured road and gorgeous old buildings. While I love living in the U.S., there is something spectacular about the older houses. Its like you are walking past history. If only walls… Continue reading Travel Photography – Streets of Toledo, Spain

One of the most amazing things about Europe is the opportunity to take in and experience these masterpieces.

Travel Pictures with Photographer Brad Riley

Travel photography has always interested me. The travel pictures of exotic places far, far, away - of lands that I could only dream of. It was only recently that I realized that, hey, you know what?
