Shiroka Polyana Misty Sunrise, Rhodope Mountains, Bulgaria

Shiroka Polyana is an artificial lake located in the Rhodope Mountains at an altitude of approximately 1,500 meters, about 30 kilometres south of the town of Batak.

Light Through The Veil, Passo Giau, Dolomites, Italy

At Passo Giau, the sunrise began with clear skies and a gentle glow on the peaks, but just as the sun reached its most radiant hour, a sudden veil of mist swept across the pass. The fog rose and danced in the golden light, transforming the Dolomites into a shifting dreamscape of soft pastels, rose, […]
The Gladiator’s Way, Terrapille Farm, Tuscany, Italy

I often travel to the Val d’Orcia during my workshops and usually try to avoid crowded spots. That morning, I had finished my tour and decided to pop into Terrapille for this shot.
Colored Fog, Lake Ouareau, St Donat de Montcalm, Quebec, Canada

Several years ago, one morning in mid-December, I was at my cottage located at Lake Ouareau, two hours north of Montreal.

Tre Cime Nature Park, Veneto, Italy

My wife has established that we will go on a cruise with her sisters about once a year. In 2020, we were supposed to do a European river cruise, but you can guess what happened with that. It finally happened in 2022. However, I did not want to go all that way and just come […]
Podere Belvedere in Morning Light, San Quirico d’Orcia, Tuscany, Italy

Podere Belvedere is one of Tuscany’s iconic hilltop farmhouses, making it a compelling subject for landscape photographers. Located in the much-photographed UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Val d’Orcia, it is understandably one of the most popular locations for photography, simply because it is picture-perfect. From the overlook where this image was taken, the scene […]
Belvedere, San Quirico d’Orcia, Tuscany, Italy

Sunrise at the world’s most photographed “Podere.” It’s not always possible to witness such a spectacle because there isn’t always fog.
Hyalite Canyon Trail, Gallatin County, MT, USA

Close to the same spot on the trail as the earlier L16 shot. Same day, 7 years later. Hasselblad resolution is superior. Dynamtic Range is better. The forest has changed considerably. Compare to the earlier photo posted here.
