The world is a spectacular place. It’s natural beauty is absolutely captivating and has left me breathless on countless occasions. Luckily, I’ve managed to pause long enough here and there to capture those moments and I have ended up with some incredible travel photos. As a thank you to my readers for their years of support I’d love to share some of my favorite travel photos with you. I’m excited to announce that I’ll be giving away two – 20 page photo books that feature some of my favorite photography from around the world. These books are printed on high quality glossy photo paper and have been extremely well received. They are unique and not available for sale anywhere.

The two winners will be chosen at random based on the following criteria and will be contacted directly after the contest period ends. Winners will also be announced on twitter and here on VirtualWayfarer.com.

How To Enter

My goal here is to share with you and say thank you, so let’s keep it simple.

1. Post a quick comment on this post between August 15th and August 25th which tells me about a place or photo that has captivated your imagination and your desire to travel (make sure you include your e-mail in the e-mail field so I can contact you if you win).

Note: While I encourage discussion in the comments each person will only be allowed one chance to win.

2. Subscribe to my Facebook Page, RSS Feed or for posts sent directly to your e-mail. In truth, this one is optional – but if you like my stuff, let’s pretend it’s mandatory and keep in touch!

That’s it!
