Faxafoss Falls in the Mist, Reykholt, Iceland
It was a cloudy dark day, with lots of mist in the air and a bit of wind which made it tricky to capture the blooming flowers in the foreground, so instead, I concentrated on the sky and water, shutterspeed slow enough to make the water look liquid, but fast enough to not turn the […]
Below Old Man’s Cave, Hocking Hills State Park, Logan, Ohio, USA
When I retired eight years ago, I knew that one of the things I wanted to do was to spend more time on photography. At the time, I had never been on a professionally led photo workshop, so as an experiment, I thought I would give it a try. The one that I picked out […]
Middle Falls at Gooseberry Falls State Park, Minnesota, USA
The early spring season was making its appearance along the North Shore of Minnesota, and during this time, the waterfalls were raging. I decided to hunt for some waterfalls during that weekend, and Gooseberry Falls was ideal for the right lighting. The middle falls are what you see here, and it’s the most popular of […]
Svartifoss Waterfall, Vatnajokull National Park, Iceland
Svartifoss waterfall is 1.5 km or a 45-minute hike from the nearest car park. I went there in September a few years ago, and on the day I captured this image, it was very overcast with showers of rain and misty conditions. In my opinion, these are the perfect conditions for black and white photography. […]
Mizarela Bridge and Waterfall, Geres National Park, Portugal
The Mizarela bridge is in northern Portugal, inside the Gerês National Park. A couple of years back, I visited this park for one week. This bridge was built in the 19th century and has many mysterious stories surrounding it. The bridge was built over the Rabagão river, where its waters cut through a granite formation, […]
Wyandot Falls, Ricketts Glen State Park, Pennsylvania, USA
Ricketts Glen State Park in Pennsylvania features more than 20 waterfalls scattered along hiking trails. To capture this image, I had to place my camera about 18 inches above the water. The low camera placement is essential to hiding a foot bridge that is just behind the top of the waterfall. The low angle also […]

The amazing Mulafossur Waterfall in the Faroe Islands is a must-visit location for all landscape photographers. The islands are unique, with breathtaking views and fabulous light. This shot was taken during the day with a 10-stop ND filter on a tripod; multiple images were stacked together in Photoshop to create the final image showing the […]
Shoshone Falls in Winter, Twin Falls, Idaho, USA
Shoshone Falls is sometimes referred to as “The Niagara Falls of the West.” In reality, Niagara Falls should be considered the Shoshone Falls of the East. Shoshone is 45 feet higher and much wider than Niagara, at nearly 1000 feet wide. The falls and the Snake River that they’re on were carved 14,000 years ago […]

The Majestic Lower Yellowstone Falls, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
We were visiting Yellowstone National Park, and one of my favorite places to photograph is the amazing Lower Yellowstone Falls. There are several viewing areas to see the falls. One right up on the falls to begin, and then several other sites further down from the falls. I like this particular spot the best because […]
