2018 – A Year of Travel In 100 Color Photographs

Puffin by Alex Berger

Every year I post 100 of my favorite photos from the year’s travels.  Ordinarily, this post comes around the New Year. For 2018 I was a full year delayed due to issues with WordPress. While its black and white sibling landed in June 2019, it is only in 2020 that I’ve had a chance to find a way to embed links to the flickr albums where these photos are hosted. 

This year’s post includes photos from the Faroe Islands, Iceland, China, Vietnam, Laos, Norway, Denmark, France and Italy.  It was a spectacular year of travel and one which was complemented by really getting to know my Sony A7RII. The Sony also brings with it added video capabilities which have led to added exploration with creating video content which you can explore here.

This post is part of an annual tradition.  For previous years, check out 201220132014, 2015, 2016 and 2017. You can also see my 100 favorite black and white shots from 2018 (HERE).

For my daily photo posts feel free to tune in and follow along via Instagram @virtualwayfarer.

Questions about how I composed or took a specific photo? Feel free to ask in a comment. You’re also encouraged to check out my complete flickr albums here which include the many other shots from 2018 (and previous years) which didn’t make it in this post.

Thanks for joining me on this exploration of my favorite color photos from 2018. I apologize for how long it took me to get them up. Issues with new versions of WordPress added in a delay of about 8 months as I explored a workaround. Photos were all shot on a Sony A7R II. Stay tuned as with my 2019 shots now edited, I’ll be posting similar wrap-ups in the near-future and endeavoring to get back on track!

I am a travel blogger and photographer. I also am involved in academic research into the study abroad and backpacker communities.
