Off the path places to shoot

Hey everyone,

I am headed over to San Diego, California next week and was wondering if anyone knew of any good off the beaten path places that warrant good photos. I don't really have a style yet as I am still trying to fully discover who I am with photography. I've never been to San Diego before and have looked up some of the more popular places to shoot and take pictures, so I was wondering if anyone had some know not so popular places.

Also, I am leaving for business in a few weeks for Baku, Azerbaijan and flying through Germany (Frankfurt) or Amsterdam. I'll have about 2 or 3 days I can spend in either place and was wondering other peoples thoughts on where they'd go. I've never been to Europe yet so this will be new for me.

Thanks for the input.

There were a lot of photo opportunites in La Jolla just north of San Diego, I had some techincal problems and didn't get any good photos (so I'm going back). But here are the types of things I was trying for.

Just got back from Amsterdam, a lot of street photography opportunities but nothing I would say is off the beaten path. Lot's of interesting architecture and I did a lot of night photography there. But not what I would consider a photographic destination.

Hey! Thanks for the reply. The first two links you posted are great shots. I will have to add this to my list to check out. Also, thanks for the head sup about Amsterdam. I am not huge into street photography so this is good to note.

Cheers!
