WORLD PHOTOGRAPHY DAY 2023

In honor of World Photography Day, I take the opportunity to share my enthusiasm each year for photography through a few of my own photograph favorites that I have taken throughout my travels.

As a travel blogger, I focus on nature photography, including animals, bees, bugs, butterflies, insects, and other natural wonders. As a food enthusiast, I also capture photos of the delicious food finds I come across. One of my most popular photographs as a Level 8 Google Maps Contributor and Master Reviewer, with over 10 million views of my photographs, is of my lobster roll pic from Tracey’s Seafood, a small roadside takeout in Sullivan, Maine (with an impressive 247,457 views on Google Maps).

Please visit my Instagram Gallery: http://www.instagram.com/virginiabrownwright to look at a few of my personal favorites. I update as nature allows. Give me some love (Heart) if you like a photo, and I’d love to have you follow me.

Enjoy!

This is my grandchild being read the book I wrote, Cranberry Eyes, by her other grandmother, MeMaw. I dedicated this book to my grandchild and she never tires of having it read to her.

EXCITED!!! About my new book Cranberry Eyes, I hope you enjoy it. This is dedicated to my granddaughter. Lydi Lou loved visiting her Grandpa Bob every fall. A long-standing tradition in the family brought her to Maine at this particular time of the year. What did they love to do most during their visit? Grandpa Bob was so funny and made her laugh. He gave everyone in the family nicknames. Take your child on a memorable adventure to Sabao Lake with Lydi Lou and her beloved grandfather. You’ll learn why he names his granddaughter “Cranberry Eyes.” This endearing tale of nicknames can bring back nostalgic traditions from your childhood.
