Forrest Gump Highway, Monument Valley, Arizona, USA
Those of us who remember the 1994 movie ‘Forrest Gump’ will immediately recall the famous scene of Tom Hanks trudging along this highway. The scene became so iconic that this stretch of road is now known as Forrest Gump Highway. One of the pleasures of being in a photographic workshop is the great choice of […]
The Inviting Valley, St Venant De Paquette, Quebec, Canada
In June 2024, I went scouting in the Quebec Eastern Townships region to capture its beauty. That day, I only carried my camera with my all-purpose 24-200mm lens. As I passed this location on Gore Road, the scenery amazed me. I parked on the side of the road, took my camera, and stood in front […]
Mt Shasta From Mt Shasta Lavender Farms, Montague, CA, USA
Mt. Shasta from the Shasta Lavender Farms after sunset on the northern slopes of the Little Shasta Valley, California, in early July. This is one of my more successful, fully planned shots I have taken. Having seen an image on the internet of a lavender field with a clear view of Mt. Shasta in the […]
Blue Hour At Raoulic Lighthouse, Audierne, Finistere, france
6:30 a.m. I am positioned on the breakwater to photograph the Raoulic lighthouse. Temperatures are quite chilly for the season. I wait for night to give way to the “blue hour.” At this early hour, the breakwater is deserted; only the engines of a few fishing boats heading out to sea break the silence. At […]
River Indus, Ladakh, India
The River Indus (1,980 mi) is a trans-boundary Himalayan river that originates in Tibet. It is the lifeline for millions of people living in this part of the world.

Moonset, Boa Nova, Matosinhos, Porto, Portugal
After photographing a magnificent sunset today, as night fell, the moon appeared clearly in the sky. In a few minutes, it too will disappear below the horizon. A small lighthouse shone on the pier. What a magnificent and serene view!
Mount Hood Curves, Oregon, USA
It was so, so cold. The snow was extremely light and fluffy for the White River area, which is usually pretty warm in winter, just below freezing typically. This morning the wind chill was brutal, which is why I knew there would not be much traffic up here to witness the sunrise. As expected, I […]
Where Dreams Fade, Falcade, Belluno, Italy
Hidden within a wild and remote valley, ancient towers rise above the forest, dominating a landscape shaped by stone, water, and mist. Their imposing presence emerges through the clouds, creating the feeling of a forgotten world, distant and untouched by time.
Magic Road, Lanaudiere Region, Quebec, Canada
Several years ago, in mid-December, I was driving along Route 125 towards St-Donat-de-Montcalm. Whenever I drive through this gorgeous region, I always carry my camera with my all-purpose 24-200mm lens. As I passed this location, the scenery suddenly amazed me, and I made an emergency stop. After parking safely on the side of the road, […]
The Ladder, Quercianella, Livorno, Tuscany, Italy
A day at the beach, waiting for the sun to set on the horizon. It’s always a great emotion when the day ends; the tender emotions take over, awaiting the birth of a new day. The ladder was there, indicating an unknown path for anyone who wanted to walk it—a ladder that ends in nothingness. […]
