Steady Force, Afon Glaslyn, Snowdonia, Wales
Photoshoot in the Glaslyn Valley.
Hurricane Ridge, Olympic National Park, Washington, USA
In the spring, a member of my camera club wanted to go out to Washington state to shoot the Palouse area, and asked if anyone wanted to go along. I thought that would be good, and as part of the trip planning, we discussed where else we could go in the region. I suggested Olympic […]
Sun Rays, Shiroka Polyana, Rhodope Mountain, Bulgaria
“The ray that scattered the darkness” was my first thought three months ago while I was admiring and filming this shot at one of my favourite places in Bulgaria: Shiroka Polyana Dam. However, to observe this scene, certain conditions are required: the evening must be very cold, but during the day, the temperatures must rise […]
Bald Cypress Trees At Dawn, Long Lake, Poteau, Oklahoma, USA
This past fall, three of my photography friends and I traveled to the Ozarks for a couple of weeks of photography. We have been getting together for these types of trips for approximately fourteen years now. Sarge does all the planning, reservations, and car rental, and we sort of travel along, although we all agree […]
X Marks The Spot, Disko Bay, Greenland
This was taken while sailing through the massive glaciers of Disko Bay, Greenland. It is unbelievably quiet there. The wind almost seems hesitant, passing through on tiptoe. It is a place where everything seems to stand still, even time. You will never notice the patterns forming in the ice and snow, but each day it […]
A Reason To Wander, Peralta Trail, Gold Canyon, Maricopa, Arizona, USA
I stepped into the Arizona desert last evening with no expectation of drama in the sky—no clouds, no fireworks of color, just a clear, quiet expanse overhead. And yet, the light had a way of wooing me. As the sun lowered, it painted the Three Sisters in the Superstition Mountains with a warm, deliberate glow, […]
Ageless, Lower Lewis River, Washington, USA
When I want to escape the world and all its problems, this is my go-to place. It is far off the beaten path, away from civilization, and far less visited than some of the other Pacific Northwest waterfalls. Once you get here, the hike to either above or below the falls is not difficult to […]
Stillness As Measure, Lake Massaciuccoli, Tuscany, Italy
I arrive at Lake Massaciuccoli in the late afternoon, when February begins to take weight away from things. The light is already low, filtered through a pale sky that does not promise sudden changes. There is no wind. The water is still, almost suspended, as if the lake has decided to hold its breath. In […]
Sunset at Passo Giau, Dolomites, Italy
Creating this image of Passo Giau in northern Italy was a story of successes and failures. I drove up to this mountain pass to capture the sunset and the rising full moon. I hiked up a small ridge on the south side of the pass to photograph the north side and the setting sun. I […]
Dancing Clouds, Cadini di Misurina, Dolomites, Italy
It was the first night on the Dolomites, right after sunset. It was cloudy and the larger view was not particularly interesting. So, decided to focus on details of the surroundings with a telephoto lens.
