I crossed over the beautiful and famous Brooklyn Bridge several times during my short stay in New York City, but the most memorable is probably the night my friends and I crossed over in the late afternoon to see the Manhattan skyline at dusk. Truly an amazing view seeing that urban jungle lit up against…
I think there are some old landmarks that we fall in love with as much for the idea as the physical architecture. Granted, the Brooklyn Bridge is a great piece of architecture. Everything I’ve read suggests that it was way over-engineered but it was built to last the ages. Would New York City be the…
London seems to be a city built on icons. Some are truly ancient, but in the scheme of things, some like the black cab, are basically contemporary. What makes that ironic is that the classic black cab of the 20th century is on the verge of fading into the past already. The last time I…
London is a city filled with iconic architecture. It’s populated with buildings that are recognized around the world by people who have never seen them in person. There are maybe a handful of cities with such landmark architecture. I’m not sure what the most recognized architecture is, but I have little doubt that beautiful Gothic…
Standing on the banks of the Thames at night is simply magical. You can practically feel the history rising into the night sky. There’s been a city on the banks of the Thames going back to at least Londinium in ancient Roman times. Some think there may have been a pre-Roman settlement but physical evidence…
Tower Bridge pictured here, is one of my favorite London landmarks is without a doubt. I love that the bridge is actually a Victorian piece of engineering dressed in the stone of Medieval England. When it was decided to build a new bridge, it was felt it should complement nearby Tower of London. The result…
I can’t imagine many modern cities where the Eiffel Tower could work to such great effect. Plant the Eiffel Tower in many modern cities and that grand beauty would be yet another tall building. The skyline of central Paris has a fairly consistent height because there have historically been restrictions of 121 feet (37m). As…
This particular print of the Manhattan Skyline is a pleasing work of fantasy. My vibrant Moon Over Manhattan is based on one of my New York City skyline photos. It was captured at dusk near the famous Brooklyn Bridge. That old landmark suspension bridge I have to say, looks just brilliant in this night time…
Paris at night is simply spectacular. On my first night there, I roamed the length of the Seine from Notre Dame to the Eiffel Tower. As I arrived after dark, I was somewhat blindly walking those historic river banks knowing only the start and the end of the trip. But even if I didn’t know…
My first Parisian night was also my first experience exploring that beautiful city. I walked along the historic banks of the Seine from Notre Dame clear down to the Eiffel Tower. And as the banks of the Seine for that full length are a UNESCO designated World Heritage Site, I really was seeing some of…
This beautiful Parisian Cherub is a decoration from the Pont Alexandre III. I was so overwhelmed by the ornate bridge that I don’t think I ever took in the whole bridge properly. There were just so many details to examine. This Parisian Cherub riding a sea monster is actually one of the more humble pieces…
Sometimes Paris feels like one big beautiful blur when I look back on my five nights there. With so little time and so much to see, I basically was on the move constantly. I walked the banks of the Seine seen in this Paris panorama print so many times I lost count. Those historic river…
There’s a Timeless London quality to gazing across the river at the great dome of St. Paul’s cathedral. It’s one of those iconic sights that surpasses the lives of people. You have likely seen iconic photos of St. Paul’s rising above the smoke and debris of World War II and it feels like an enduring…
There’s simply something very Parisian to me about this print of a winter afternoon relaxing on the Pont des Arts over the river Seine in Paris. I think in some small part it may be because it mirrored my own Parisian experience in some way. I had spent a long day wandering in Paris. The…
Winter spring or summer, all my experiences with the weather in Northern Europe is that you never know what will come next! An example is the day that I took this Dublin panorama print. The day had started out simply dreadful. It was winter in Ireland, so this wasn’t a massive surprise! I thought about…
I’ve said it many times, but without a doubt Paris was one of the most picturesque places I’ve been. There’s just an unusual harmony to Paris architecture. Even though it spans the ages, it all seems to fit together just right. One can certainly tell that there’s been thought to the aesthetics in the old…
This London print is something of a rarity in my artwork. I love to include people in my scenes but rarely are they featured at this level. That’s something of a riddle as I have always loved people watching. Yet I have rarely ventured into candid street photography. I think it was in some part…
London is a cityscape filled with landmark architecture – buildings so iconic they are known the world over. And there’s no question that St Paul’s Cathedral is one of them. The landmark cathedral was built by architect Sir Christoper Wren after the great fire of 1666. There is something truly majestic and, yes, iconic, about…
Pictured here is a uniquely Parisian afternoon along the river Seine in Paris, France. This is the Seine as seen standing in the middle of the Pont des Arts. To the right in this photo, the buildings visible are the famous Musée du Louvre. Even in the midst of winter, there are tourists on-board boats…
This print is based on a photo taken at dusk in Galway on my last night in the city. I had taken photos on previous evenings from this same vantage point overlooking the Salmon Weir Bridge over the River Corrib. If you’re in one spot long enough, I think it’s natural to repeat locations, to…
My first walk across the Brooklyn Bridge was a beautiful one. I don’t think I could have asked for a more picturesque afternoon. The golden sunlight, the great skies, it was the type of afternoon an artist might custom order. And I guess it was also a great afternoon for skateboarding? As I stood at…
I would really love to return to Bath some day. Despite already being on my list of places to see, everything I had really heard about Bath revolved around the famous Roman Baths that gave the city its name. What I discovered is that Bath is much more than that. It’s a city full of…
The days in Scotland in the winter are so very short. This much accounts for our arriving at Eilean Donan Castle, pictured here, at what looks like midnight! It wasn’t actually as late as it appears, but the sun had set and our little group was being pelted by a driving rain when we got…
This print is a picture of the famous Brooklyn Bridge on a warm fall afternoon. In the background is a portion of the ever-changing Manhattan skyline. This print definitely captures a quintessential New York City landmark. The Brooklyn Bridge was the longest suspension bridge in the world from it’s completion in 1883 until 1903. It…
Considering I was only in Paris for five nights, I was incredibly lucky not just for the number of sunny days I had in the midst of winter but for the fantastic quality of that light. This photo is an example of just how powerful that light was. And of course, I’ve said many times…
