Autumn At The Summit, Vanoise, Savoy, Apls, France
At an altitude of 2,600 meters, this tree stands as the last of its kind. Perched and unreachable, it evokes solitude and fragility, yet also the strength to endure at the summit. Its blazing autumn colors make it stand out against the surrounding landscape of rock and stone—a final moment of splendor before the snow […]
Factory On Mars, Factory Butte, Wayne County, Utah, USA
A drone shot of Factory Butte in the morning with unusual light and colors hitting it and the surrounding area.
Cape Blanco Sunset, Oregon Coast, USA
A friend pointed out this tree, and I thought it would make a nice silhouette with the sea behind it. I took a photo of the scene with my iPhone, and the computational iPhone camera showed me that there was some pretty rich detail and color in that scene. I followed the iPhone’s advice. I […]
Alpine Valley Path, Savoy, Alps, France
Calm was restored, alone on a path through a high-altitude valley. The black-and-white treatment evokes a lunar landscape for me.
Tea Covered Hills, Munnar, Kerala, India
The rolling, tea-covered hills of the Western Ghats, scattered trees, and winding roads form the distinctive landscape of Munnar. Tea plantations cover the mountain slopes almost as far as the eye can see, creating a continuous pattern of green across the hills. Through this vast expanse of tea gardens, the road around Gap Road winds […]
Massaciuccoli, Torre Del Lago, Viareggio, Lucca, Tuscany, Italy
On Lake Massaciuccoli, when the water loses every ripple and the landscape seems to dissolve into the light, only a few traces remain to suggest a presence. Old pilings from a long-gone pier emerge from the surface like fragments of a vanished structure, arranged along an irregular perspective that draws the eye toward the horizon. […]
River Of Ice, Matanuska Glacier, Alaska, USA
This image was made during a recent workshop to shoot fall colors in Alaska. The Matanuska Glacier, a 25-mile river of ice, is framed by trees, shrubs, and the peaks of the Chugach Range in the distance. From where I was standing, the glacier was hidden by a hill directly in front of us. Using […]
Trans-Alaska Pipeline, Castner Ice Cave, Alaska, USA
An aerial perspective of the elevated Trans-Alaska Pipeline cuts through a winter landscape, bordered by a frozen river plain and the Alaska Range. What you are seeing on the right is the zig-zagging structure. It runs 800 miles from Prudhoe Bay to Valdez and is built above ground on Vertical Support Members (VSMs) in this […]
Road Leading To Castner Ice Cave, Alaska, USA
Donnelly Dome, Alaska, and the mountains rising behind it are the Alaska Range (specifically the Delta Mountains and Hayes Range of the Eastern Alaska Range). Standing as an isolated, glacially sculpted dome (a monadnock) rising out of the Delta River plains along the Richardson Highway, it frequently serves as a dramatic foreground subject for the […]
Pitigliano Road, Italy
This picture was taken during a walk in Pitigliano; I just loved the greens and the leading road between.
