Trevi Fountain
When in Rome, you must visit the Trevi Fountain. There's no denying its magnificence. I first saw it as a tourist almost two decades ago. When I returned to Italy, I was more than a tourist. I was a photographer. I wanted a photo of the fountain that wasn't shot through a crowd.
One morning while my family slept, I ventured out to the fountain. I was out on the streets way before sunrise... the metro wasn't even running yet. I had Trevi to myself. And as a bonus - a quiet walk through Rome as the city slowly woke up was another treat (and now a fond memory).

The rolling hills of Zabriskie Point offer a unique combination of colors, shapes, and textures.
Scott Davenport is a landscape photographer and photo educator and based in San Diego, California. He leads photo workshops, writes photo books, hosts podcasts, makes tutorial videos, and feels weird referring to himself in the 3rd person.
He also can't help getting his feet wet photographing at the beach.
With sunsets after 11pm and sunrise at 2am, a landscape photographer doesn’t get a lot of sleep.
