Where Sun and Fog Play, Kelly, Teton County, Wyoming, USA
Sunrise and fog interact in wonderful ways in Wyoming’s Teton Valley. Temperature changes swell and burn fog that changes quickly and slowly at the same time. The landscape interplays with these changing conditions and provides small windows for unique scenes. Near the flats of Kelly, Wyoming, are a few scattered trees that have lived and […]
Kerid Crater, Grimsnes, Iceland
This extraordinary photo shows the volcanic crater Kerið, located in southern Iceland. The deep, almost perfectly round basin is filled with water of an intense turquoise hue, which contrasts with the surrounding reddish-red, porous lava and green moss deposits. This natural combination of colours gives the impression that we are looking at an alien, almost […]
Kona Sinkholes at Sunset, Kailua-Kona, Hawaii Island, USA
The island of Hawaii, aka the Big Island, is very young in geologic terms, only about one million years old. The coastline has many areas of lava interspersed with sand. Near the town of Kailua-Kona, lava extrusions from previous eruptions have formed sinkholes on the ocean’s edge. Seawater from incoming waves fills up the opening […]
Moody Daybreak At Dream Lake, Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, USA
Well before the dramatic dawn light began falling over Dream Lake and Hallett Peak, I set out from the trailhead in Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, in the pre-dawn darkness. Hiking by headlamp along the winding, snow-dusted trail, the only sounds were the crunch of boots and rustling wind through the trees. As the trail […]

I was there with my cousins, who live nearby in Mannheim, whom I visited after many years (I myself live in Greece). Schwetzingen Castle is famous for its beautiful and harmonious gardens. The romantic reflection of the […]
IJsselmeer Shore, Marker Wadden, The Netherlands
At the end of a long walk photographing birds, just before I returned home, I came upon a small beach and decided to at least make one landscape photo. But the weather had turned a bit grey with strong winds, and I did not bring any filters, so I just experimented a bit with longer […]

Southern Utah offers a fantastic array of landscapes and some of the darkest skies in the world, a combination ideal for nightscape photography. Goblin Valley State Park, off Hwy 24 on the road from Hanksville to Moab, is one of those special places that deserves a visit. I planned this trip to coincide close to […]
Falls Like Midnight Lace, Marshall, North Carolina, USA
One night in North Carolina, I was with a group of photographers playing with colored lights at several waterfalls. We tried lighting the falls with blue and pink lights, and all of it made for great photography. When I looked at my photos, however, I discovered that my favorite shot of the night was white […]
Iceberg Detail, St George Peninsula, Antarctica
Daily, twice-daily excursions on Zodiac vessels took us to multiple icebergs, each more magnificent than the other. The serene, quietude, and stillness experienced when the motors were off allowed one to experience the beauty and inspiring sights of each location. A very large iceberg was ahead, and as we got closer, details of the structure […]
