A Sunny Day in Mycenae

Mycenae is an ancient city in mainland Greece, dating back to the Bronze Age. We visited the ruins here in 2016, and something about this trip and photographing Greece dramatically improved the quality of my photography. It’s interesting looking back and comparing my editing style before and after this trip. Something clicked and my style really started to come together a lot more. I hope the ruins and countryside in the images below are similarly inspirational to others, too…

Douro Valley

The Douro is one of the largest rivers in Portugal, and flows from Spain to near the city of Porto. It is the world’s oldest demarcated wine region, and a World Heritage Site. It was a change of landscape from our travels through the small medieval towns of Portugal. Douro Valley is a great place to relax and enjoy the vibrant green landscapes, a good glass of wine, and some local olive oil to boot.
