Spent the day in Slovenia's beautiful Soja Valley yesterday, towering peaks, cascading waterfalls, emerald water and bouncing bridges.

Everyone loves puffins, but despite breeding around the UK coast, they're not the easiest birds to see. Here's a guide on where and how to see puffins in the UK? #traveladdicts #travel #birds #travelphotography #birdphotography #puffins donotgogentlytravel.com/where-can-i-...

Where Can I see Puffins in the UK

Puffins are the most charismatic of birds. They visit the UK's coast to breed each year, but people ask where can I see puffins in the UK?

Currently in Vienna. I've always wanted to see the Spanish riding school and the spectacular white horses, so attended the morning training. Unfortunately, they don't allow photography of the horses, so I used AI to give you an idea of the show.😀

While birding the Santa Marta mountains of Colombia, we met two men from the local indigenous people. It's encounters like this that make travelling worthwhile.

20 years ago, Comuna 13, Medillin, Colombia was the most dangerous place on the planet. Now, it's known for graffiti, hip hop dancers, bars & tourists.

Excellent day yesterday at Reserva Natural Jardín de Rocas. Normally to see a Cock of the Rock Lek, you need to be up at dawn. Teatime is much nicer!

I hate heights, but I tried, I really did. Then I saw it. La Garrucha, Jardin, Colombia. There's brave and there's stupid. I'm neither :-)

Interesting first morning in Bogota. Hit Plaza Bolivar and found a massive procession of singing, white-robed priests, literally hundreds.

Not sure about that. Flash photography I can understand, but not seeing the issues with photography in general. If they were worried about respecting the bones, they wouldn't have turned them into a chandelier and a massive coat of arms.

Not sure, I did ask about that, but they're serious about it. It was even mentioned on the tour company wroteup. There's a real haridan who prowls around. She absolutely laid in to a group of 8 year old school kids who were being too noisy. Frankly, she should have had a word with the teacher.

Ok! A little naughty as you're not supposed to photograph in there. A few, "shot from the hip" shots at the Bone Chapel in Kunta Hora, near Prague. Extraordinary ossuary. Creepy! #traveladdicts #travelphotography #solotravel #travelbloggercommunity #noflashphotography
