PTR held its first workshop in October 2008 and here I present some of the images taken by (and of) participants.

The workshop was a huge success. The accommodation turned out to be even better than expected, the apartments gave everyone a bedroom to themselves, two nice lounges where we could meet and free internet access.

PTR Forum Photos of the Month - July 2008

The PTR Team has selected two photographs that were posted to the PTR Forum as Photos of the Month for July 2008.

 

Neil Burton posted this photograph, taken in India.  In many ways the photograph is what photography and travel is about, that is, capturing a moment in time about a place one has visited.  Neil's use of black and white for this photograph brings drama to the scene.

 

 

Grand Tetons National Park

By Bill

Located in northwestern Wyoming, Grand Teton National Park preserves a spectacular landscape rich with majestic mountains, pristine lakes and extraordinary wildlife.

The jagged Teton Range offers the photographer wonderous opportunities for landscapes as the valley to the South of the range is nearly flat, offering contrasts between sage covered fields and escarpments like none other in the United States.

Slovenia. Sublime Scenery.

Money, Some Travel Advice

 

By Bill

During the last four years, I have traveled to four continents and nine countries.  One of my principal planning issues has always been money.  How will I pay for airline tickets, car rental, accommodations, meals, gifts, and tips? How can I take advantage of using combinations of money and reward accounts? 

Some good tools for currency conversion, locating ATMs, and advice on credit cards can be found on our Resources Menu.

Here are some considerations:

Invisible Shield

Outfitter Package

Bug-Shirt

Chargers/Batteries

Quik-e-seat
