Things to see in Athens, Greece

Under the blue sky of Athens

I had forgotten about that sky. So blue, so clear. And the neverending azure blanket that lit up the city but also brought an oppressive heat.

Photography tour, Buenos Aires, Argentina

Through the lens

Sometimes a city comes to life when you look at it from a different perspective. Through a photography tour, Buenos Aires took on a new level of mystery

Essaouira Port, Morocco

The port of Essaouira

It’s all blue. The beautiful port in the Moroccan city of Essaouira was once so important but now it’s the azure colours that make it worth a visit.

Liminka Bay wildlife photography tour, Finland

The right kind of bird shooting

The protected area of Liminka Bay in Finland is one of the best places in the world for bird watching. I meet a wildlife photographer here who shows me why.

Photos of Myanmar, Burma

The best of the rest: Photos from Myanmar

A collection of photos from across Myanmar (Burma). The landscapes, the temples, the people and the food.

U Bein Bridge, Amarapura, Myanmar

On the road from Mandalay

The U Bein Teak Bridge is more than a tourist attraction for sunset. The bridge near Mandalay is used everyday by the locals – and that’s the best thing.

Photos of Asuncion, Paraguay

Snaps in Asuncion

The capital of Paraguay, Asuncion, has small charms for the small number of visitors it gets. This photo gallery gives you a taste of the city centre.

London night photography tour

Night photography in London

Exploring a city by night always makes it look different. But when you’re looking at London through a lens as well, it brings on a whole new perspective.

The Mass Games, Pyongyang, North Korea

North Korea’s ‘Greatest Show On Earth’

The Mass Games in North Korea is one of the biggest shows on Earth with 100,000 performers. These photos give you a rare glimpse of what it’s like inside.
