Collection: USA
Every traveler to the USA has some idea of what to expect and that certainly applied to me. But no-one can prepare you for the sheer diversity of landscape and the amount of spectacular scenery that is readily available to the photographer.
In 2011 we hit the roads in the south-west in our hire car taking in some of the national parks in Utah, Colorado and Nevada on the famous 'Grand Circle Tour'. The weather was more than kind to us with 22 days of almost unbroken sunshine and I managed to get some great images for my new USA Collection - approximately 4.500 actually! I certainly plan to go back and add to these in the near future.
Whether this is an area that you have visited already, plan to visit or are just curious to find out more about, I'm sure that you will find something in here that will interest you.
