Eilean Donan Castle, Dornie, Kyle of Lochalsh, Scotland

Photo taken at sunset in March at the magnificent Eilean Donan Castle. I stayed there for over half an hour, waiting for the perfect moment—the beautiful light on the snow-capped mountains. I tried several long exposures, but this one is still my favorite.

Sunset At Saguaro East National Park, Tucson, Pima County, Arizona, USA

I spent two months traveling across the US in a van with my partner, Aileen. One of our favorite places to visit, as we had in the past for business, is Tucson in southern Arizona (we used to sell high-quality mineral specimens, and Tucson is considered the proper capital of such an interest). During our […]

Ruby Road, White Pocket, Arizona, USA

Ruby Road, White Pocket, Arizona, USA

Ruby Road highlights the bold geometry and colour that define this remote desert landscape. I was drawn to the deep crimson striations carving their way across the sweeping sandstone slope, leading to intricate white rock formations that rise in the distance like ancient sculptures. I felt that the sharp contrast between ruby reds and weathered […]

The Zone System Dunes, Great Sand Dunes Monument, Colorado, USA

In 1990, I had an opportunity to attend a Howard Bond (RIP) workshop at The Great Sand Dunes Monument in Colorado. I was photographing in B&W exclusively at that time, using Kodak TMax 100 4×5 sheet film. Carrying my 35lb backpack and tripod up the dunes was not an easy task, but once we got […]

The attraction of this shot was the colored patterns on the floor of the Negev Desert, Israel. The colors are the result of volcanic activity in the area. There are ridges in the area which allow for shots like the one shown.

Welcome Party, White Pocket, Arizona, USA

Welcome Party, White Pocket, Arizona, USA

This image invites viewers into the heart of Arizona’s geological wonders. Taken during moonlight, two towering rock formations rose before my eyes like sentinels under a textured desert sky, flanking a winding sandstone path that drew my eye inward. I was captivated by the warm accents of ochre, rust, and golden tones, contrasting against the […]
