Title: Admiring The Taj Mahal At Sunrise

Description: There’s a lot to take in when visiting the Taj Mahal. While there is a crush for getting at sunrise, the crowds dissipate once inside the grounds. I’ve found this leaves room for quiet contemplation and enjoyment of the sunrise.

I’m excited to be heading to Central America to teach photography in November and December of 2017 in Costa Rica and Panama. One trip is from Costa Rica to Panama, including a transit of the Panama Canal and a number of National Parks and islands, while the other is the same itinerary in reverse.

I’d love to see you on either trip and you can save $200/cabin by using code CH2U117 when booking either of those Costa Rica/Panama itineraries. Click here or email me for more details.
