BrendansAdventures.com Photography Critique

August 15, 2014 by Jeff B. 1 Comment

Thanks to social media, we all have friends we’ve never physically met. For me it’s Brendan Van Son, author of BrendansAdventures.com. We’ve corresponded online for a few years; I set him up on a hike with National Geographic writer Peter Potterfield and he’s handed me plenty of online writing/blog writing advice, encouragement and, dare I say, inadvertent mentoring.

He also drove Anne Murray clear across Africa.

Recently, he’s focusing on his Youtube Channel and one initiative is his photography critiques of other travel photographers. I’ve volunteered for an upcoming video, so I need to post 10 travel photos for his review.

My BrendansAdventures.com Travel Photography Critique Images

I’ve been incredibly fortunate to travel for much of the past decade; however, as all of my readers know, my photography has radically improved in the past year. Because I’ve spent much much of that time exploring Alberta, I’ve elected to use #explorealberta as the theme for this critique.

These are 10 of favorite images captured in my adopted home province.
