I often wonder why major resorts build on beaches without a view of a sunset.

One […]

Postcard – The Buddhist Perspective from Thailand
by Craig Zabransky on December 4, 2012 in Photo, Postcards
On a trip to Thailand, I spent some time in Bangkok. And one day I left the city to visit the old Thai capital of Ayutthaya. Before I walked through the ruins and took dozens of images of the Buddha, I snapped this image of a large reclining Buddha… stay adventurous, Craig
Sunset Sunday – Hill Country Sunset in San Antonio, TX
by Craig Zabransky on December 2, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
Sometimes a sunset finds you. Originally, I thought my chances for a magical sunset in the hill country of Texas were above average. Sure, I wanted to catch one more central to San Antonio, but my schedule didn’t allow it (this trip) so I stayed out in the “hill country” and asked the concierge of […]

by Craig Zabransky on November 28, 2012 in Destination, Featured
With early morning snow flurries in Beijing I wondered how the weather might affect our drive to Mutianyu. Thankfully, the flurries faded and we enjoyed a smooth ride to the Great Wall of China. The dusting only provided an accent to the scenic labyrinth of stones structure before our eyes. The snow created a winter […]

And no trip to the Indonesian island of Bali is complete without viewing a sunset and a stop in the cultural center of Ubud. Ubud […]

by Craig Zabransky on November 20, 2012 in Destination, Mexico Travel, Photo

My adventure through Chihuahua was just beginning and I’d enjoy the scenic landscape the entire way to Chihuahua City. And in one part of the Chihuahua Desert a rare natural wonder exists – the Samalayuca Sand Dunes. When the […]

by Craig Zabransky on November 18, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
This coming week reminds me about being thankful and giving thanks. And on Thursday, Thanksgiving, I’ll spend time with family and friends. We’ll eat, we’ll drink, and we’ll also give thanks to the people and events in our lives that make it special. But as you make your list to give thanks, or perhaps prepare […]
