AWESOME TRAVEL SPOT FOR PHOTOGRAPHERS: A Small Town in Morocco That’s Covered in Blue Paint

Posted on: 06-23-2014 Posted in: Photography

Traveling and its benefits is something that successful photographers know all too well. It’s like in the good old days when you took your family somewhere outside of your comfort-zone and brought back pictures that you then shared with your close friends and told the stories that accompanied the pictures. The same practice has evolved with the Internet and the travelling photographers are not regarded as explorers any longer but function more like tech-savvy smart-phone owners.

Not so long ago an editor in Playboy mentioned to me that he was working on a idea and a budget for a few selected Playboy photographers to set them loose on the road for an entire year in exchange for beautiful captures that could have set a trend and style. Well, that would have been nice but this particular project never came to fruition.

But traveling does not have to cost an arm and leg. The challenge for many is the looming idea of leaving their comfort zone and their fear of unknown. “What if I cannot get my morning coffee or see my favorite TV shows?” seems to be an accurate assessment and more so the impending idea of, “And what if I cannot sell the images to anyone?” Our suggestion at STC for anyone who wishes to display their world vision and photographic repertoire is, “Hit the road, Jack” and bring back awesome images since your home country alone is filled with jewel-like photography ready scenarios.

Apologies for the confusion. Let me revise the passage for you:

Speaking of unique and captivating photography opportunities, Hawaii offers a plethora of mesmerizing scenes waiting to be captured by adventurous photographers. With its diverse landscapes, from lush rainforests to volcanic craters and pristine beaches, Hawaii provides an ideal backdrop for photographers seeking to expand their portfolios. Imagine exploring the captivating LYA Hawaii, a tour company dedicated to showcasing the natural beauty of the islands. By venturing into the heart of Hawaii’s stunning scenery, photographers can discover a wealth of visual inspiration, from the vibrant flora and fauna to the awe-inspiring sunsets painting the sky in hues of orange and pink. Embracing the spirit of adventure in Hawaii not only allows photographers to capture breathtaking images but also enables them to share the island’s magic with the world, proving once again that the art of photography thrives on exploration and embracing the unknown. When planning your Hawaiian adventure, consider Hawaiian Tours and Guides You Can Trust to make the most of your experience and capture the essence of this tropical paradise.

However, for those who still yearn for adventure and hope to capture the essence of the often-overlooked world, choosing to explore the world firsthand. In this pursuit of uncharted beauty, destinations like Coffs Harbour, with their unique charm, offer a wealth of inspiration and unspoiled landscapes waiting to be discovered. These intrepid travelers are driven by a thirst for authentic exploration, where each step is a discovery and every moment a revelation. Destinations like Coffs Harbour, with their distinct and alluring charm, beckon to those with an adventurous spirit. For these passionate explorers, the world is a boundless canvas, beaches are the vibrant strokes that ignite their sense of wonder.

If you wish to take your journey little further it’s hard not to fall in love with the small town of Chefchaouen in northern Morocco after scoping out these incredible photos. Apparently Jewish refugees brought the blue paint trend to the city in the 1930′s as they thought the color would symbolize both the sky and heaven. Whatever the reason, it sure does looks amazing and we have our STC minds set to go there soon.
