How Humid Is It in the Virgin Islands in June?

How Humid Is It in the Virgin Islands in June?

Just how humid is it in St. John, USVI, in June? Extremely. Oppressively. Ridiculously. Superlatively. I could sit here (back in NYC and in the comfort of an air-conditioned room) and rattle off adverbs all day. But luckily a picture is worth 1,000 words and I have managed to take a few pictures that capture [...]

Photographing the Firefall at Yosemite

Photographing the Firefall at Yosemite

For a certain type of traveler, it’s all about the chase. And seeing – and successfully photographing – a natural phenomenon that requires ideal weather conditions is about as tough as it gets. James Kaiser has spent the past 10 days in Yosemite National Park blogging about his experience trying to photograph the Firefall, which occurs [...]

Travel Memories Never Looked So Good: A Print Mounted on Acrylic

Travel Memories Never Looked So Good: A Print Mounted on Acrylic

Everywhere I go, I take hundreds of photos, a small fraction of which end up on Travelogged. In the days of film, I’d be featured on Hoarders because my apartment would be drowning in prints and I’d be suffocating by negatives. But in this digital age, it’s just the opposite. Hardly any of my photos ever [...]

Scotland Scenery: Panoramas Shot With Sony’s iSweep Technology

Scotland Scenery: Panoramas Shot With Sony’s iSweep Technology

Did you see those Sony commercials where Taylor Swift takes a photo of her adoring fans by physically panning the camera? I did, and thought that Sony's Intelligent Sweep Panorama Mode was one of the coolest features I've ever seen. Since it was time for me to buy a new point-and-shoot digital camera, I decided [...]

Photographer’s Special: Rufford Abbey is Fun to Photograph

Photographer’s Special: Rufford Abbey is Fun to Photograph

Rufford Abbey, a crumbling monastery-turned-country-house, ended up being one of my favorite attractions in Nottinghamshire, and possibly in all of England. It used to be within what was officially considered Sherwood Forest (home of the Major Oak), but as the forest's land has been divided up it's now its own Rufford Abbey Country Park. It's [...]

Catching the Sunset in Grenada

Catching the Sunset in Grenada

Yesterday, I missed the sunset over Grand Anse beach in Grenada due to an ill-timed nap. Today, I wasn’t going to let that happen so I made sure I was in a prime spot by 5:30pm. As you can see, I made it this time and watched the fiery ball drop behind a small hill. [...]

Sedona Through a Photographer’s Eyes

Sedona Through a Photographer’s Eyes

(photos by Malena Georgieva) Lately, it seems that I can't get enough of the American West. I just posted about my friends' road trip through Southern Utah. And I still have more to write about my trip to Northern California. But now I want to share you with some photos taken by NYC-based interior designer [...]

A New Way of Looking at La Sagrada Familia

A New Way of Looking at La Sagrada Familia

The first time Malena Georgieva saw photos of Gaudi's  La Sagrada Familia, she was eight years old and her father had just returned from a trip to Barcelona. Over the years, she has seen many pictures of Gaudi’s famous unfinished church and was very excited to finally see it in person this past November. "I [...]
