The Last 2025 Sunrise, Plage de l’Est, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

The Last 2025 Sunrise, Plage de l’Est, Montreal, Quebec, Canada

I took this photograph on December 31, 2025, at 07:58. Once again, the result reflects two fundamental elements of photography: careful planning and familiarity with one’s gear. As mentioned in a previous publication, I used The Photographer’s Ephemeris to identify a local sunrise location that I could reach in less than twenty minutes. The weather […]

Reeds And Curved Stream In Colour, Lake Skadar, Montenegro

Reeds And Curved Stream In Colour, Lake Skadar, Montenegro

This is the colored version of the already published B&W Reeds and Curved Stream, Lake Skadar, Montenegro shot. Why two versions? Well, I am interested in knowing what the different versions bring to the viewer. The challenge of this shot was to get it from a moving, swaying boat. I think I could have shot […]

Evening Fog, Mount Menzies, Campbell River, Vancouver Island, Canada

Evening Fog, Mount Menzies, Campbell River, Vancouver Island, Canada

I often visit Mount Menzies’ old forest fire lookout. From this location, you can view the lake country spreading out 3,000 feet below. I have many images of this view. On this day, as I was driving down the mountain, I saw how the evening fog was drifting through the trees. I liked the composition […]

Sunrise Over Emerald Bay, Lake Tahoe, California, USA

Visiting Lake Tahoe in northern California is a special event. The elevation provides a deep blue sky, the water is among the clearest in the world, and the environment is pristine. Emerald Bay, on the southwest corner of the lake and pictured here, is one of the most popular destinations because it embodies all of […]

Lake Ripples, Lake Skadar, Montenegro

Lake Ripples, Lake Skadar, Montenegro

I shot a lot of photos of Lake Skadar. Why pick out this one to be displayed? The photo shows Lake Skadar as a construction of beautiful elements laid out by the depth of the shot. Here we have the greens of the lake: reeds and water lilies. Add to that the ripples in the […]

Endless Eucalyptus Forest, Honoka’a, Hawaii, USA

Endless Eucalyptus Forest, Honoka'a, Hawaii, USA

Decades ago, the sugarcane business began to wane on the Big Island of Hawaii, rendering the extensive cane plantings around the island uneconomic. Many of the cane fields in the north and east parts of the island were ripped out and subsequently converted to eucalyptus groves, in hopes that the wood would someday provide income […]

Laupahoehoe Explodes Again, Laupahoehoe Point, Hawaii, USA

953734

I’ve taken countless photos of the intense and mesmerizing wave action at Laupahoehoe Point on the Big Island in Hawaii. Prevailing winds come from the east and bring waves that build as they hit the shallow waters of the point and explode against the east-facing lava towers that surround the point just offshore. Each big […]

Lower Antelope Canyon, Arizona, USA

Lower Antelope Canyon, Arizona, USA

This photo captures Lower Antelope Canyon in Arizona, one of the most photogenic places in the world. Carved by water and wind through red sandstone, the narrow slot canyon captivates with its fluid, almost sculptural forms. Warm shades of red and orange contrast with the intense blue sky visible through the crevices overhead. Natural light […]
