I couldn’t sleep; in fact I was wide awake. Alive. I guess you can say the lights kept me up. After my first night I even wondered if the Northern Lights, my first views of the Aurora Borealis, were just a dream, but after a second night of embracing the arctic air, the vibrant, dancing lights […]

Postcard-Exploring Planet Hoth from Churchill, Manitoba
by Craig Zabransky on May 16, 2013 in Photo, Postcards
Churchill, Manitoba is north. Far north. It is on the edge of the Arctic Circle and near the tree line. That’s the line where the trees end and the ice world begins (in winter). In summer I imagine the tundra to be beautiful, but my trip took me up north in winter to view the […]
Sunset Sunday-The Arctic Cold of Churchill, Manitoba
by Craig Zabransky on April 7, 2013 in Sunset Sunday
Everywhere I travel I always capture a sunset and my arctic adventure to Churchill, Manitoba proved no different. On my first evening, I socialized the idea with my hosts and planned to capture it the following evening after we settled in. The itinerary included three nights in Churchill and sunset photos were hardly high on […]

by Craig Zabransky on July 1, 2012 in Sunset Sunday
A summertime stroll through the streets of Quebec City can confuse any visitor. French is spoken, cafes line the cobblestone streets, the food is delicious, and none of it is cheap.

And after reading my post about my Annual Goals Check In, she approached me about publishing her goals. She said […]
Sunset Sunday – Lake Huron, Ontario, Canada
by stayadventurous on September 26, 2010 in Guest Post, Sunset Sunday
Originally, I started following Wendy on Twitter when I discovered a shared appreciation for Mexico. But when I started Sunset Sunday, she consistently posted photos of sunsets on Twitter. All of Lake Huron in Ontario, Canada. I wondered what made the lake and location so special? Well, I asked her share a photo and some […]
Canadian Giants
by Craig Zabransky on February 19, 2010 in Destination, Reflection
Canada. Majestic landscape, hockey, and as any New Yorker knows, (but doesn’t care to admit) the better side of Niagara Falls. And now as Vancouver plays host to the 2010 Winter Olympics, nightly we all learn more. As a frequent traveler to the ‘Great White North’ I can offer advice on Canada, but I wonder […]
