Story: My first evening in Florence, my friend and I took a walk. As were walking past this church, I noticed how the sun was reflecting through the top of the done. It was gorgeous and I knew I had to capture this ephemeral beauty. #florence #sunbeam #dusk #picoftheday #potd #photooftheday #goaheadtours #italy — in…

Story: Because today I need to be reminded that there is beauty in the world. This flower was part of a garden above a catacombs in Italy. #beautyintheworld #yellowflower #catacombs #italy #rome #goaheadtours
Title: Venice at Night
Story: Riding in a vaporetto down the Grand Canal at night as the city lights up is one of the most breathtaking experiences I had while in Italy. Paris, I think Venice might be in the running for the moniker of “city of lights.” #venice #italy #cityoflights #picoftheday #potd #photooftheday #photography #goaheadtours #grandcanale #vaporetto #nofilter…
Title: Boneyard Beach
Story: After an extensive walk, an amazing expanse of beach blossomed into view. I was awestruck. As we walked down the beach, there were many remnants of trees, some of which become submerged during high tide. Walking along this amazingly beautiful hidden beach opened my eyes to how much we can miss out on if…
Title: The Otherside of the Breezeway
Story: As we crested the end of the seemingly endless breezeway, all of a sudden the path turned sandy and the surrounding grounds became a haven of trees and dense bushes. A little further in the distance, a beach was blooming right in front of my eyes. It was magical. #boneyardbeach #picoftheday #potd #photooftheday…

Brooklyn Navy Yard Photography Tour
If you’re like me, when you see an interesting restricted area, your first thought is “how can I gain access to this area without potentially being arrested?” Add a decaying structure to that restricted area and I am all for doing some amateur sleuthing. Along the waterfront in Wallabout Basin area in Brooklyn, NY sits…
Missed Connection: Frankfurt, Germany
After Naples, my friend and I bid ciao to Italy. Our flight home was scheduled with a very tiny layover in Frankfurt, Germany. In order to make our connection flight, our initial flight had to go off without a hitch. We had no such luck. Our initial flight was delayed and left after the time…
Italy: Herculaneum
In 79 AD, another town lay in the shadow of Mount Vesuvius: Herculaneum. As Vesuvius continued to erupt, a volcanic pyroclastic flow (a fast-moving ground-hugging avalanche of hot ash, pumice, rock fragments, and volcanic gas that rushes down the side of a volcano as fast as 100 km/hour or more) approached Herculaneum and eventually buried…
