Silver Birches, Forest of Cansiglio, Veneto, Italy
For many years, a trip to the Forest of Cansiglio in northern Italy had been high on my bucket list. I had long dreamed of visiting this vast, ancient woodland, with the main goal of photographing the red deer during their rutting season and capturing the forest’s quiet beauty through my lens. When we arrived […]
Mysterious Waters Misty Sunrise, Apalachicola NF, Florida, USA
Winter in the forests of North Florida’s Deep South is often quite lush due to the predominance of evergreen vegetation. Morning low temperatures are sometimes just above freezing and quickly warm with the rising sun. Here, on this December morning, a soft mist developed as the surrounding swamp began to warm, lending a bit of […]
Magnificent Misty Morning, Lake Lure, Rutherford County, NC, USA
I am always so psyched when I open my eyes upon awakening and see the fog rolling in upon the lake. It usually indicates a virtual candy land of photography, but when I came upon this site, I was gobsmacked. I had ventured on a walk through the forest and was amazed at the light […]
Ora Station, Akitio, New Zealand
Spending time on my friend’s generational farm allows me to explore freely. Waking up to scenes like this is such a treat.

Solitude At Mariagerfjord, Hadsund, Nordjylland, Denmark

Here’s another photo from Val d’Orcia. This time, it’s autumn, and I was capturing images at the most famous spot in the world.

Autumn Blankets, Lake Lure, Rutherford County, NC, USA
While trekking around the lake, the colors, fog, and weather can change rapidly, often before you even have a chance to set up your camera.

Getting up before dawn at Rifugio Averau during our Alta Via 1 trek, I was rewarded by this fantastic view of Cinque Torri below us with mist in the valley.
Victoria Falls Sunset, Zimbabwe and Zambia
My wife and I visited Victoria Falls during the dry season in 2013, when a drought resulted in extremely low water levels. This condition exposed much of the cliff faces that are usually hidden behind the cascading water at other times of the year. One afternoon, I set out to find a viewpoint that would […]
