A Best Travel Blog

What is ExposedPlanet.com? ExposedPlanet.com is a so-called photoblog, which is the visual variation of a blog. Normally photobloggers post one image daily with little or no comments, but as you will see, not me :) I have started ExposedPlanet.com not only as a way to show my portfolio, but also to share the beauty of our planet. Nowadays negative press & media might make people scared of everything foreign or different: culture, religion, people and the places themselves. This xenophobia is taking over our lives and prevents us from seeing the real world as it is: a wonderful place with beautiful people. There are no bad or evil countries, religions or people. There is bad and good people in every culture, including your own. I hope I can share a bit of the amazement I have enjoyed while traveling the 7 continents. The more I see, the more I know I still have to see and I will. Life is too short to focus on not-existing enemies & fears. Comments are more than welcome, but please do not just say “great shot” or something similar, but let me know why this image (didn’t?) touch you. Many thanks.

Something not commonly know about ExposedPlanet:
Who am I? Harry Kikstra, a climber/expedition leader/ photographer/ filmmaker/ producer/ writer/ public speaker/ cycler and many other things that have to do with sharing the beauty of the outdoors. I have climbed the 7 continental highpoints (including Mt Everest) and have traveled a lot and will not stop soon, though normally I am based in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. I have published 4 books, my images have appeared in National Geographic Adventure, Panorama & Penthouse NL, Getaway South Africa, OutdoorAustralia and many more. I am currently cycling and photographing from Alaska to Tierra del Fuago, more than 32,000km/20,000 miles.
