Sunset At White Sands National Park, New Mexico, USA
“I have made several photo trips to White Sands without much luck in getting good sunrises and sunsets. Finally, my patience paid off.”
Venus Shining After Sunset, Lavra, Matosinhos, Porto, Portugal
On the west coast of Portugal, the sun always sets over the Atlantic Ocean. Walking along the beach near where I live a few days ago, I witnessed a magnificent sunset. As it grew dark, I was marvelled to see the planet Venus above the horizon. In an hour, Venus will “descend” in the sky […]
Sun Goes Down Behind The Mountains, Lake Manasarovar, Tibet
A sliver of the Mt. Kailash range glows in the last light of the day. I recall that we were strolling by the shores of the lake when we came upon this unforgettable scene. I had noticed earlier that a squall was developing on the distant horizon, which must have thrown the rainbow into the […]

Ogliastra Coast Sunrise, Barisardo, Nuoro, Italy

Seastacks At Sunset, Bandon Beach, Oregon, USA
After seeing an art show in Beverly Hills where one of the artists was showing his work on Pacific Ocean sea stacks, I said to myself, I have to shoot these myself.
The Sunset Show, Coulee Grou Beach, Montreal, Quebec, Canada
I captured this photograph on August 9 at 8:22 PM in Montreal, at La Coulée Grou Beach. Montreal is a big city. However, I have found many places free of visual distractions that are ideal for capturing sunrises and sunsets. From experience, I know that the few minutes around sunset or sunrise can produce gorgeous […]
Bow Fiddle Rock, Portknockie, Scotland
Bow Fiddle Rock was high on my list for my second Scotland trip. When I arrived, the weather wasn’t being very cooperative, but I decided to stick it out and was eventually rewarded with a few moments of good light.
