Welcome to the June 7th, 2008 edition of the Carnival of Travelers.
The theme for this month was travel photos, specifically profiling the great photos that travel bloggers take (the requirement was that the photos be taken by the blogger).
Here, for your viewing pleasure is a little window into the world:
- Diane Robbins presents Travel Snippets and More: The Architecture of Buenos Aires posted at Travel Snippets and More.
- Jack Norell presents Shooting photos from a moving vehicle posted at Eyeflare - Travel Articles and Tips, saying, “On the road you often see some interesting sights out your window. Here are some travel photography tips on capturing photos from a moving vehicle.”
- Shane Sakata presents A Cemetery in Omotesando posted at The Tokyo Traveler, saying, “The roof of the temple in this shot was just visible over the cinder block fence of a parking lot in a very busy area of Tokyo! The cemetery in the foreground and the blue sky in the background make the whole image pop. I love this image and it reminds me that sometimes the shots that turn out the best come at the least expected times and in the least expected places.”
- Sheila Scarborough presents The Mast General Store posted at Perceptive Travel Blog, saying, “Features three photos that I took at the Mast General Store in Valle Crucis, North Carolina, just off of the Blue Ridge Parkway.”
