Free Flowing Salmon Falls, Big Sur, California, USA
Big Sur is California’s 90-mile stunning landscape. Henry Miller once remarked, “Big Sur is the California that men dreamed of years ago; this is the Pacific that Balboa looked at from the peak of Darien, this is the face of the earth as the Creator intended it to look.” It is truly spectacular. Among its […]
Ethereal Pacific Ocean Sunset, Golden Bluffs Campground, California, USA
I was camping with my brother while on a road trip down the West Coast from Vancouver to Los Angeles. This campsite was a last-minute find after our plan A didn’t work out. We were eating our camping dinner of smokies and Idaho instant potatoes when I noticed a glow over the sand dunes in […]
Heart Lake, Upstate, NY, USA
It was a beautiful fall day in October in the Adirondacks. I was out for a hike with my dog, Diesel, while we visited the area for the first time. As we hiked around Heart Lake, we came upon a stunning reflection across the water. I love how the pristine fall mountains are mirrored in […]
Sunrise Rays And Solitary Cherry Tree, South Moravia, Czech Republic
The photograph shows a beautiful, solitary tree illuminated by the rays of the rising sun, which envelops it in a golden glow. The tree stands in the middle of the orderly rows of vines in Moravia, creating a magical contrast between the natural form and the geometric layout of the vineyard. This shot combines the […]
Morning Light on the Hoodoos, Bryce Canyon National Park, Utah, USA
Bryce Canyon National Park in southwest Utah is world famous for its vast array of eroded sandstone rock formations, known as hoodoos. Many of the formations, such as Thor’s Hammer, and the trails, such as Wall Street, have fanciful and descriptive names. Given the amazing variety of these hoodoos and the way in which their […]
Pudong Skyline, Shanghai, China

This photograph captures the power of the urban landscape and the dynamism of the metropolis. It is captured with a dramatic long exposure that blurs the clouds in the background, emphasising […]
A Welsh Jungle Experience, Blaen-y-glyn, Brecon Beacons, Wales
During our holiday in Wales, one of our first walks was in the area of Blaen-y-glyn, where Komoot recommended a nice “round trip” with plenty of opportunities for waterfalls and – obviously – also very old and natural forest areas. This particular place looked like a Jungle, an old forest in the middle of Wales, […]
Ross Errilly Friary, Headford, County Galway, Ireland
The photo shows Ross Errilly Friary in Ireland, one of the best-preserved medieval Franciscan monastic sites in the country. The ruins rise majestically from a green meadow, and a dramatic sky spreads over them in warm sunset hues that fade to cooler purple-blue hues. The stone walls and distinctive tower of the friary emphasise the […]
Towards Vik From Dyrholaey Cliffs, Iceland
On a windy February afternoon, it was a struggle to protect the camera on its tripod as the wind gusted from the southwest. Having climbed up to the clifftop, it seemed prudent to stay in that area, shooting towards the east rather than exploring the southwest side. The clouds were heavy at the beginning of […]
Tahquamenon Falls At Sunset, Tahquamenon Falls State Park, Michigan, USA
I ventured to many areas in one day and ended the day by making my last run to Tahquamenon Falls. As I parked my car, I made haste to the waterfalls, wondering where it was, and soon after, I heard it from a distance. Following the much-needed directional signs, I got closer to the sounds, […]
