    An escape that's within the city but worlds away from the concrete and computer screens that drain our spirits slowly like a leaky faucet, Forest Park, in Portland, Oregon, with it's miles and miles of empty muddy trails winding through dense mossy forests is an amazing place to rejuvenate, refresh and renew both the body and the mind. Strap on some trainers and go run through a mud puddle!

    For the photographer seeking unusual window displays, San Francisco's Chinatown offers a plethora of riches. This scene struck me as both All-American and exotic, a melding of cultures.

    The narrow streets and alleyways of Sarajevo crisscross the steep hills that surround the city. It's easy to get lost, but it's also great to wander aimlessly.

    Taken in Atlantic City, the underside of this pier was incredibly beautiful on this freezing January morning. The sounds of the waves were echoing through my tunnel-like surroundings.
