Desert Lines, Nazca, Peru
In August 2018, we travelled to Peru and Bolivia as members of an organised trip. Peru features a 1,555-mile (2,500 km) long, narrow desert strip along its Pacific coast, making up about 10% of the country and acting as one of the driest places on Earth. For that trip, I carried two identical Olympus cameras, […]
Desert Mountain Top, Joshua National Park, California, USA
I was visiting Joshua Tree National Park as part of my winter getaway. As I live on Vancouver Island, Canada, I became a snowbird after retirement. I now spend my winters in Arizona and California. It was on one of these trips that I spent the day in Joshua Tree Park. After spending most of […]
Monument Valley Icons, Navajo County, Arizona, USA
Monument Valley in Arizona is not a US National Park, but has the prestigious designation of Navajo Nation Tribal Park, of which there are only a few. I’d like to say it is challenging to see this view of the iconic East and West Mittens with Merrick Butte, but it is the centerpiece of the […]
Lilled Path In Color, Lake Skadar, Montenegro
The inspiration for this shot was the symmetry between the path of water and its surrounding lilies. That made the shot irresistible for me. The shot serves as a comparative photo for the black and white version already posted. I liked them both in color and black and white. What do you think?
The Royston Gap, Vancouver Island, Canada
The small town of Royston is located just south of Courtenay on the east side of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. I have walked the beach in Royston many times. But on this cloudy day I walked on a path that leads north of town. When I turned around, I spotted the clouds forming and […]
Wind Shaped Dunes, California Desert, USA
One of my favorite places to explore photographically is the badlands and deserts of the American Southwest. I usually spend several weeks exploring there every year in the fall to take advantage of cooler weather and colorful foliage. Travel throughout this entire region is challenging due to its massive size and the long driving distances […]

Cold Desert And Lake Manasarovar, Tibet
Lake Manasarovar in Tibet claims the title of one of the world’s highest freshwater lakes. The surrounding landscape is a high-altitude cold desert environment, with arid plains, rocky outcrops, and sparse vegetation. The harsh conditions contribute to the lake’s pristine and untouched beauty.
Golden Desert, Antuyo, Peru
In August 2018, we travelled to Peru and Bolivia as members of an organised trip. Peru features a 1,555-mile (2,500 km) long, narrow desert strip along its Pacific coast, making up about 10% of the country and acting as one of the driest places on Earth. For that trip, I carried two identical Olympus cameras, […]
Santa Luce Lake, Tuscany, Italy
This photograph, taken last summer, depicts a lake in the Pisan countryside. The extraordinary thing is that it was the first time I had witnessed such an incredible drought, partly due to the intense heat. This photo is unique and illustrates the damage that drought can cause.
