The third annual Worldwide Photo Walk will be taking place on July 24th of this year. I have been participating as a Photo Walk leader from the very beginning (Boulder 2008, Estes Park 2009) and last year was just crazy, because we’ve had close to 50 participants!
This year, I want to change the location again and I need the help from last year’s participants in choosing the best location for the Photo Walk. Here is what I have in mind:
Where should the Photo Walk 2010 take place?
- Denver (45%, 14 Votes)
- Georgetown (35%, 11 Votes)
- Crested Butte (23%, 7 Votes)
- Aspen (16%, 5 Votes)
- Other (Please specify in comments section below) (13%, 4 Votes)
- Manitou Springs (10%, 3 Votes)
- Vail (6%, 2 Votes)
- Breckenridge (6%, 2 Votes)
- Colorado Springs (6%, 2 Votes)
- Fort Collins (3%, 1 Votes)
Total Voters: 31
Loading ...You might be wondering what Aspen and Crested Butte are doing in the list, since those towns are so far away from Denver. Well, I think that doing a Photo Walk in those places would be a total blast and I can guarantee great experience and images, as long as the weather cooperates. Aspen is absolutely gorgeous (a definite visit to Maroon Bells) and Crested Butte takes my breath away every time I go there. In terms of logistics and cost, we could all stay in Glenwood Springs and I can get a very good deal for hotel rooms there. We could leave a day earlier and stay in Glenwood, then drive to Aspen/Crested Butte in the morning. I know it sounds like a crazy plan, but it would certainly be a unique experience.
If driving and time/cost are a problem, we can also do the Photo Walk in Georgetown, which is also a beautiful town. Otherwise, Colorado Springs, Denver and other places nearby would also work.
No matter what location is selected, I am planning to do a free photography workshop for those who are interested (I can teach landscape photography, portraiture, camera gear and lighting techniques).
Please let me know as soon as possible.

I would love to participate! How would one go about getting an invitation?
All the best,
Mike
Mike, would love to meet you at the Photo Walk! Once the city is finalized, I will enroll to be the leader of the walk, then post the info here. You can sign up after that…
Looks like so far Georgetown is taking the lead :)
Valencia Spain as other location por favor :P
Marek, I believe there were multiple photowalks in Spain last year. Are you going to participate this year? :)
I’m looking into the subject. I’m in Valencia on erasmus student exchange and i did more walking with my camera around the city on my own than participating in a photowalk as I haven’t heard of any before :/
Marek, if you know other photographers in town, gather them up and become a photo walk leader! It will be a rewarding experience, for sure.
I would have loved to be a part of this and enrich myself with your workshop. I am located at Hyderabad, India and hence cant afford today. Hope to join you in near future for similar such activities.
Abhijit, have you looked at the photo walk website yet? Check it out, there might be walks taking place in Hyderabad as well!
I was not aware of the website… can u ping the url?
Abhijit, the URL is http://worldwidephotowalk.com/ and it is the first link in the article.
Fort Collins Old Town and surrounding areas would be good.
Bill, I added Fort Collins to the list (love Fort Collins as well).
