Colorful Sunset, El Canelo Beach, Algarrobo, Valparaiso Region, Chile

I took this picture on the Central Coast of Chile, more precisely at El Canelo Beach, which belongs to the Valparaíso Region.

Sapphire And Stars, Trout Lake, Washington, USA

Trout Lake, Washington: An idyllic little gem in Southern Washington, which for some reason I have always just had great timing with, especially at dusk or dawn. This morning, like most mornings here if you come during Spring or late Autumn, was very cold and extremely still. It was the end of October, and the […]

Echoes Of A Tuscan Morning, Pienza, Tuscany, Italy

Echoes Of A Tuscan Morning, Pienza, Tuscany, Italy

A morning glimpse of Val d’Orcia from the ancient walls of Pienza — a hilltop town that embodies the quiet charm of Tuscany.
