In New Orleans, a city built on a swamp, the dead are enshrined above ground. Row upon row of crypts and mausoleums with elaborate entryways, wrought iron fences, and decorative rooftop statues form the Cities of the Dead.

The vaults reflect the heritage of French and Spanish colonists, who were accustomed to seeing these types of burials in their homelands. The styles and sculptures decorating the homes of the dead often reflect activities the deceased had pursued in life.

Time and extreme weather systems further shape their quiet abodes. The photos in this book were taken at...

In New Orleans, the Cities of the Dead are beautiful, historic places to roam. The styles and sculptures decorating the crypts and mausoleums often reflect activities the interred individuals pursued during their lives. Flowers, mementos, and decorative elements added to the gravesites make every visit moving.

The thirty-five photos in this collection were taken at Greenwood Cemetery & Mausoleum, St. Louis Cemetery No. 2, and Saint Patrick Cemetery No. 2. They have been reproduced in full color at the size of a standard cellphone screen to replicate the experience of being there....

Photography's prominence in the representation and experience of India in contemporary and historical times has not guaranteed it a position of sustained attention in research and scholarship. For a technology as all pervasive as photography, and a country as colossal as India, this scenario is somewhat of an anomaly.

Photography in India explores elements of the past, present and future of photography in the context of India through speculation and reflection on photography as an artistic, documentary and everyday practice. The perspectives of writers, theorists, curators...

One of the most stunning destinations in British Columbia, Kelowna remains a hidden gem for most travelers and even most Canadians. In the Hug of Hills is storyteller and photographer Cathryn Wellner's love letter to a small city in one of the most stunning spots on the planet. 

Vibrant and increasingly diverse Kelowna has earned two nicknames: "Napa North" for the over 200 vineyards surrounding it and "Silicon Vineyard" for the growing high-tech sector bringing young families to the area. In the Hug of Hills explores the most-loved, and...

At over 2,500 years old, Rome is more than the capital of Italy. It is the center of artistic creativity and a cultural complex that arguably outstrips any other location on earth. Ancient monuments like the Colosseum continue to capture our attention while institutions like the Vatican Museums spur intellectual interest.

The heartbeat of Rome is found in every traveler’s soul. The rushing crowds on the main avenues can be left behind by ducking down a side street. After a block or two, enter one of the small neighborhood streets where children play ball and...

If only two words could be used to describe Rome, no pair could be better than “creativity” and “culture.” Even the most casual visitor is swept into the city’s dizzying array of ancient sites, stunning artwork, and new surprises around every corner.

The Eternal City is the capital of Italy, and perhaps its most striking travel destination. The historic city center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that charges every vacation with the energy of the Roman Empire founded on the Seven Hills.

An exploration of Europe cannot be complete...

Pattaya on noin 150 km Bangokista kaakkoon Thaimaan lahdella sijaitseva lomakaupunki. Se on yksi Aasian johtavista rantakohteista. Pattayalla on kaikkea tarjolla mielenkiintoiseen lomanviettoon.
Pattaya oli vain pieni kalastajakylA, mutta suuri muutos tapahtui 1961, kun ensimmAinen ryhmA noin 100 Yhdysvaltain Vietnamin sodassa taistellutta sotilasta saapui Pattayalle lomalle. Pian uneliaasta Pattaysta tuli...

Death Valley is clearly the heaven for photographers, especially for landscape photographers. It has seemingly endless sand desert, mysterious racetrack, overwhelmic valley view of Dante's View, and Mars-like scenary of Devil's Golf Course and Bad Water just in one grand area. It is almost impossible to see the whole area of Death Valley in a single day. I was not an exception either and had to stay for 3 to 4 days for each of my 9 time visits. It take, on average, 4 5 hours to move from one point to another. Moreover, the best photo times are different depending on points, so we can not...
