What do you think is the thing holding you back from taking better pictures?
If you say the camera, I would argue that you don't know how to use what you have. Even phones can take amazing shots. Head to my website, www.soljornphotography.com and check out my recent blog post. It should help you understand the equipment you have, and help you to be a more creative photographer. Hope you have a great weekend, keep shooting.

You'd think driving the PanAmerican highway would have made me a good driver, but to be honest, I'm pretty distracted looking for photographs. I almost hit the guardrail the first time I rounded this curve cause I caught a glimpse of the city out of the corner of my eye. I finally made back there with my camera and it did not disappoint.

P.S. don't tell my wife I admitted to not being a good driver

“We have lived our lives by the assumption that what was good for us would be good for the world. We have been wrong. We must change our lives so that it will be possible to live by the contrary assumption, that what is good for the world will be good for us. And that requires that we make the effort to know the world and learn what is good for it.” - Wendell Berry

Travel is one of the most powerful, life altering experiences we can undergo. It can teach you more about yourself than you could ever have known. Travel is not just about the feeling of seeing new things, tasting new food, or meeting new people. Although those are all exciting, travel is more about how all of those things change you. Pushing the boundaries of what you think you know, and who you think you are. This waterfall in Iceland is the perfect example. The first time my wife and I were here there was a blizzard that confined us to our rooms for an entire day. We were early on in our relationship and we were forced to learn a lot about each other and how we handle adversity. The next day I captured this half frozen falls upon returning to our hotel. Years later we would return to the same falls, but this time we were greeted with a rainbow. Maybe we were tested on the first time there to make sure that we would find our way back to share this moment. As it just so happened to be the eve of our wedding day.
When you're traveling, while you are taking in all around you, make sure you take the time to look inward as well.
