While it’s been several weeks (shame on me) since I’ve returned from Beijing, China, there have been a few factors slowing down my progress on my travel photo book.

1) A busy schedule
2) over 1300 photos to sift through.

Wowsers.  Here is my selection of favourites from the Forbidden City.  Hong Kong photo selections will soon follow.

Hope you enjoy!!!

Got to meet the man himself, David Copperfield in Las Vegas — Canadian Illusionist, Ryan Joyce.

I’ve been to Las Vegas over a dozen times.  People often ask if I ever work Las Vegas.  The sad reality is that I prefer to make a living at magic.  Las Vegas only pays if your are a casino or a celebrity– and there is no bigger celebrity in Magic than David Copperfield.  Had the great fortune of meeting the man himself.

More photos to come from our Las Vegas and Los Angeles trip this month.

PS:  In all my trips to Vegas I’ve only ever handed over $7.00 to the casino.

Canadian Illusionist Ryan Joyce is truly a man of many “top hats.”

Not only has he impressed audiences with his modern, mind-blowing feats of magic– which include vanishing a firetruck and levitating a two ton SUV live on stage–  he has also devoted himself to humanitarian causes by raising over two million dollars for charities and making 100 politicians disappear (if only for a short time).

With his exciting brand of magic, mystery and mischief, Ryan presents a show that is guaranteed to capture your imagination and rekindle your sense of wonder– you don’t want to miss it.
