The Trapped Valley, St Privat d’Allier, France
In September 2017, I hiked 450 km of the Chemin de St-Jacques-de-Compostelle in France. For such an endeavor, minimizing luggage weight was crucial. I streamlined my photography equipment to include one camera, two lenses, and several memory cards. I carried a 24-200 mm f/4 lens and a 50 mm f/1.4 lens. One of the reasons […]
Misty Lands of Siena, Crete Senesi, Tuscany, Italy
I often run workshops throughout the Siena area. The locations are wonderful, but what a photographer expects is morning fog. Fortunately, my knowledge of the region enables me to find it almost always.
Farmhouse in the Mist, Foza, Altopiano di Asiago, Italy
For some time, I have been deeply passionate about rural landscape photography. I believe this interest stems from my upbringing in Africa, where farms are abundant. After moving to my home in Italy, particularly to the Highlands of Asiago in Northern Italy, this passion has grown even stronger. I’m drawn to places that evoke a […]
Misty Semi-Island, Rhodope Mountains, Bulgaria
Shiroka Polyana is an artificial lake situated in the Rhodope Mountains at an altitude of about 1,500 meters, approximately 30 kilometres south of the town of Batak. The dam is surrounded by coniferous forests on all sides, making it a refreshing retreat even during the hottest summer days. Due to its beautiful location and abundant […]

The 151 km long braided Waimakariri River winds through the valley, flowing from its headwaters in the Alps, across extensive shingle beds, and across the Canterbury Plain to the South Pacific Ocean. This […]
Misty Barre d’Etel, Morbihan, France
This photo was taken at the Barre d’Étel (Brittany, France) in winter, in freezing temperatures and a ghostly atmosphere. The Barre d’Étel is located at the mouth of the Ria (river) d’Étel. The ria flows into a low, sandy coastline that is perpendicular to the prevailing swell, resulting in the formation of a sandbank called […]
La Galette Morning Fog, Charlevoix, Quebec, Canada
In October 2024, I spent a wonderful week in the Charlevoix region with friends, all eager to capture the autumn beauty with our cameras. One morning, I was amazed to see a thick layer of fog that resembled a massive cloud resting on the ground. From my experience, being at a higher altitude offers the […]
Fogbow, Inside Passage, Alaska, USA
Cruising to and from Alaska in September presents a wide variety of weather patterns. On one of my recent cruises, the last few days were warm but quite foggy in the afternoons. I usually took a walk around the deck before dinner, bringing my camera along “just in case.” I was hoping to capture a […]
Early Morning Mist, Belvedere, San Quirico d’Orcia, Tuscany, Italy
Capturing the mist forming over the San Quirico D’Orcia Valley in Tuscany is a truly special experience. I have travelled to this location on several occasions over the past 20 years. Sometimes you will be lucky to see the mist, and sometimes you will not. It all depends on the weather conditions at the time. […]
