Crummock Water, Lake District, England
I recently ticked off an item on my hiking bucket list with a trip to the Lake District in England. I’ve long been mesmerised by images of the area and couldn’t wait to explore for myself. This is the view of Crummock Water near the beginning of a day hike loop from Buttermere. We grabbed […]
Pistol River Beach, Oregon, USA
After sunrise, I found myself on a stretch of sand, surrounded by vague shapes and the sound of incoming waves. When warmer air moves east and collides with the colder Pacific upwelling from the shelf, it creates a mist that hangs along the coast. This is beneficial for the coastal rainforest, but it can pose […]
Road to Red Lodge, Carbon County, Montana, USA
This tree and these hills are located on a large ranch just outside Red Lodge, MT. I have photographed this road numerous times. Sometimes the sky is just right. This was one of those days.
Kaatterskill Falls in the Catskills, Greene County, NY, USA
I visited the lower falls at the Kaaterskill Falls area. There is a small parking area that leads to this site, but the walk is a short and somewhat unsafe one. The road winding through the mountain is often traveled by many people eager for a glimpse of the falls. Although the lower falls may […]
Golden Hour Over Himalayas, Ladakh, India
Late evening sun rays light up the foothills of the Himalayan mountain range. Ladakh is crisscrossed by several mountain ranges, one of which is the Mighty Himalayas. I didn’t have to go too far for this beautiful view. I took this picture from the city of Leh, the administrative capital of Ladakh.
Late Afternoon at Fosslar Waterfall, Iceland
After a full day of photography on Iceland’s south Atlantic coast with strong and gusty winds, it was a relief and a pleasure to find relative calm at Fosslar Waterfall. The late afternoon sun’s low light was perfect for the icy blue waters tumbling down over the rocks. I used an ND filter to seek […]
Ayasse River Falls, Champorcher, Valle D’Aosta, Italy
This image shows a waterfall located along the rather steep path in the suggestive gorge of the Ayasse River, which runs alongside for a stretch. After crossing a bridge, we find a steep climb in the woods: it is the area known as “la scaletta” because it is characterised by numerous stone or wooden steps […]
Harpswell Fishing Port, Bailey & Orr’s Island, Maine, USA
This was taken at an unusually quiet moment. Unusual, because there is something always going on here at the working waterfront, seafood trading, fishing, and a sailing tour location. I was struck by the many different objects in this scene, yet there was also a relationship among them that made for a dynamic composition, with […]
Godafoss In Early June, Iceland
Several years ago, shortly after retirement, my wife and I took a three-week trip to Iceland. We chose late May and early June for our trip because we wanted to see the Icelandic waterfalls in their full glory. Sure, the weather at that time can be rainy and cold, but the water flows strongly. Our […]
Pangong Lake, Ladakh, India
Pangong Lake is a high-altitude lake (13862 ft) located in a remote part of Ladakh along the frontiers of India and China. A long, treacherous, mountainous road from the city of Leh (10000 ft) with an overnight stop at a remote town led us to the lake. As we approached the lake and were descending […]
