Lower Calf Creek Falls, Escalante Region, Utah, USA

One of my favorite places to explore photographically is the Southwestern United States and Utah is typically the highlight. I usually spend several weeks there every year in late fall, hiking and exploring to take advantage of cooler weather and colorful fall foliage. I have photographed in this region for decades and have visited this […]
The Magic Waterfall, Fairy Pools, Isle of Skye, Scotland

A couple of years ago, I organized a photo trip with friends to the beautiful Scottish Highlands. We spent one week in the Glencoe region and a second on the Isle of Skye. The Highlands are truly a photographer’s paradise. To plan the trip, I relied mainly on the Landscape Photographer’s Guide for both regions, […]
Thundering Faxafoss Waterfall, Fludir, Iceland

Like most landscape photographers, I headed towards the incredible Gullfoss waterfall soon after having arrived in Iceland. We were driving in our own car, following a pre-selected route and monitoring signs along the road. We had an itinerary that roughly followed the famous Golden Circle route that begins in Reykjavik and planned to spend the […]
Braided River And Lake Pukaki, Mt Cook National Park, New Zealand

Flying over New Zealand’s Southern Alps on the South Island is always a treat and a highlight of my experiences. Although I have flown among these mountains for many years, this was my first opportunity to photograph the braided river that flows into Lake Pukaki. To capture the desired image, I had to give the […]
Elowah Falls And McCord Creek, Columbia River Gorge, Oregon, USA

This spring, I was on a waterfall tour through the Columbia River Gorge area in Oregon. I hadn’t previously been to this waterfall, so I was pretty excited to get on the trail. The trail had taken quite a beating from the winter weather in the Gorge and was rough going into the canyon. I […]
Ponta do Buraco, Madeira, Spain

This photograph was taken early in the morning, just as the first light began to stretch across the coastline of Madeira. I was staying nearby, and this view — with its quiet elegance and soft colours — kept calling to me. That morning, the conditions were perfect: overcast skies with just enough movement to create […]
In The Twilight, Pantai Watu Parunu, Sumba, Indonesia

Watu Parunu Beach is a beautiful and relatively unspoilt beach on the island of Sumba in Indonesia. Hopefully, it will stay that way, far away from all the Instagrammers and other look-at-me locations. The great thing is that you can discover for yourself where it is still relatively quiet and where you can find beautiful […]
Glen Sligachan Waterfall, Isle of Skye, Scotland

A couple of years ago, I organized a photo trip with friends to the beautiful Scottish Highlands. We spent one week in the Glencoe region and a second on the Isle of Skye. The Highlands are truly a photographer’s paradise. To plan the trip, I relied mainly on the Landscape Photographer’s Guide for both regions, […]
Pudong District Skyscrapers, Shanghai, China

This black-and-white photograph captures the harmonious juxtaposition of the stark geometry of urban architecture with the soft, fluid movement of clouds. Thanks to the long exposure, the sky takes on a painterly form, creating a tranquil backdrop for the static, vertical lines of the city. The delicately illuminated greenery in the foreground introduces a subtle […]
Baker Creek, Haast, West Coast, New Zealand

Very rarely do I see someone else’s images and say I want that photo. This was one of only two locations I have had such an intense desire to photograph. A bucket list photo for me, and I finally got the opportunity to get it today. Still, it wasn’t without hazards, drama, more time than […]
