We all carry a photographer inside and a digital camera – from snazzy SLR with megas of memory to a cellphone. When visiting Colombia there are too many choices of where to go and what to see, so we’ve decided to lend a helping hand and our photographic eye. Here, a brief inside guide to some of those top 10 magical views, one should try to see – and of course live – to the fullest. We begin with Cartagena and the view from the stone ramparts which surround the jewel in this country’s tourism crown. From the Plaza de Santa Teresa in this “Corralita de Piedra” one can appreciate the spires of the Old City and yellow dome of the San Pedro Claver church. The hike to Guane, Santander from colonial Barichara along the Camino Real is steeped in history and offers stunning views of the Suaréz River. In the middle of La Guajira department is the Carrisal desert – an awe-inspiring plain where you can chase mirages before reaching the beach at Cabo de la Vela. And the list goes on! But we don’t want to spoil all the fun of navigating our photo gallery. thecitypaperbogota.com/travel/gallery-your-10-must-colombia-moments/13623

All of my trips in Colombia are based upon the photo opts. I'm a former U.S. Navy Photographer and have maintained it as a hobby. I love the Colombian Caribbean Coast for photo opts, I take hundreds of photo's there, many are based upon low lighting and sunsets. I have 4 Nikon Pro level cameras and several lenses so if I don't get good pics it ME, not the equipment. It is my fondest wish to be able to photograph ALL of Colombia safely, maybe someday? I have travelled to many places that most Colombians have not had the opportunity to visit like the Sierra Nevada Pargue San Luis above Manizales. The Caribbean Coast from Cispita to Santa Marta, Colombia is a photographers paradise.
