Portrait Of An Old Tree, Falkenhagener Lake, Falkensee, Germany
During a visit to my father, who lives near Berlin, I took an extensive stroll around the Falkenhagener lake, which is located near the town of Falkensee, west of Berlin. The lake has some interesting shoreline to offer, and a little bit away from that shoreline, quite old trees can be found. This area has […]
Rhododendrons In Flower, Madonna di Campiglio Area, Trento, Italy
This photograph perfectly encapsulates my approach to landscape photography, a no-nonsense pursuit of authenticity, free from gimmicks and driven by a deep connection to a particular location. Captured in the lesser-known reaches of the eastern Dolomites, it reflects my growing desire to move away from iconic, over-photographed locations and instead celebrate areas of outstanding beauty […]
Bookcliffs Full Moon Rising, Green River, Emery, Utah, USA
We were returning from a short trip to Moab, Utah, USA, and beautiful winter snow squalls were blowing by and over the Book Cliffs area. I enjoyed taking a number of different shots and thought I was done until I looked out my window again and saw the full moon, which had previously been hidden […]
Underground Wonder Fall, Gljufrabui, South Iceland
I must confess that I have always had claustrophobia and a fear of darkness. To capture a proper image of the fall in Gljufrabui, one must be comfortable in these conditions. I found myself standing in ice water, enveloped in a thick frozen mist, while trying to get close enough to balance the difficult lighting […]
Illinois Canyon Bluebells, Starved Rock Park, Utica, IL, USA
Every year, in April, I visit the Illinois Canyon in Starved Rock State Park to admire the beauty of the canyon bluebells. Illinois Canyon is at the top of my list of places that I’ve been to in this awesome world. The blue vibration you get from the beauty of these wildflowers in this Canyon […]
Ganoga Falls In Autumn, Ricketts Glen State Park, Pennsylvania, USA
Ricketts Glen State Park in northeastern Pennsylvania features more than 20 waterfalls along hiking trails. The waterfalls attract many visitors to the park, especially during the fall foliage season. I have hiked to the falls many times in all four seasons. During autumn, I try to photograph waterfalls earlier on a cloudy morning when fog […]
Majestic Peaks, Aiguilles d’Arves, Maurienne, France
I am always in awe of the mountains, but I feel small and insignificant beside these majestic giants of ice and rock. The north face of the Aiguilles d’Arves — 3,500 m (11,483 ft) — rises above the Maurienne Valley, nestled in the heart of the French Alps. This valley, shaped by time and glaciers, […]
Kaaterskill Falls Overview, Green County, New York, USA
In the spring of 2024, I spent a weekend at a cabin in the Catskill Mountain area of New York State. One of my goals was to photograph the waterfalls in the area. The largest of these falls is the 260-foot-high, double waterfall, Kaaterskill Falls. This landmark has been the epicenter of Catskills tourism since […]
The Haramiyata Peak Spring Wildflowers, Rila Mountain, Bulgaria
This image represents my favourite type of landscape. To me, the perfect landscape contains a foreground (usually some kind of wild flowers), a middle plane (like a lake providing reflections), and a background (usually some steep mountain peak). So, after significant meteorological research – concerning wild crosuces, wind speed per the day/hour regarding the reflections, […]
Full Moon Rising, St. George, Utah, USA
I was out to capture the Southern Utah desert sunset one early spring evening in late March. Unaware that there would be a full moon rising due east of me. The sunset that night was mediocre at best, so I headed back to my vehicle from the hiking trail, a bit depressed about not capturing […]
