Polar Express, Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada
This famous location in Banff National Park has been photographed many times at sunrise and sunset, but I wanted to create something a little different, inspired by a Christmas classic: The Polar Express. The train in this area does not pass at exact hours, so photographers could wait anywhere from minutes to over an hour […]
The Watchman, Zion National Park, Utah, USA
The Watchman is a famous view in Zion National Park that lends itself perfectly to Milky Way photography because of its location. In June, the Milky Way rises right behind the mountain peak and the valley in front of it. [the_ad id=”89866″]
Deadvlei Pan, Namibia Naukluft Park, Namibia
Deadvlei is a dry, hot clay pan with nowhere to hide from the sun during the day. The sun has baked and forged the landscape for hundreds of years, giving us the unique desert landscape we see today. [the_ad id=”89866″]
David Thompson County, Alberta, Canada
I found this shot while searching for a composition while walking around in my crampons on a frozen reservoir in Alberta. In the winter, many lakes and streams freeze and have bubbles within the ice due to the methane released from decaying plant matter underneath. On this particular week of visits, the lake was mostly […]
Jokulsarlon Beach, Iceland
One of the items I made a point of packing on my trip to Iceland was a pair of rubber rain boots to wear when shooting near water. For some reason, I had the brilliant idea of leaving these boots in my car when photographing close to the shoreline at Diamond Beach. This caused my […]
Dead Horse, Utah, USA
This photo was taken at a beautiful location that I found difficult to shoot because of how wide it is. I wasn’t able to find a great composition and the sunset wasn’t spectacular, but I ended up finding this very interesting tree to use as a foreground. [the_ad id=”89866″]
Castle Mountain, Banff National Park, Alberta, Canada
Castle mountain is one of my favourite mountains near the town of Banff, especially during winter. I walked along the river in front of the mountain at sunset and found this snowy ice pattern to use as a foreground element. [the_ad id=”89866″]
Icefields Parkway, Banff, Alberta, Canada
On my drive back to Banff from one of my day trips on the Icefields Parkway, I noticed a patch of interesting snow on the side of the road. I see a lot of interesting scenes when I drive around, but these locations usually only amount to a little, and I end up forgetting about […]
Lone Tree, Namibia
This field in Namibia was a very simple composition with very few colours, but its simplicity makes it different from so many landscape photos which is why I like it. [the_ad id=”89866″]
Sossusvlei, Namib Naukluft Park, Namibia
There are many amazing sand dunes in Sossusvlei, including “Dune 45” and “Big Daddy,” but there are so many dunes to photograph that it doesn’t really matter which you choose. I decided to go for a minimalist composition for this one. [the_ad id=”89866″]
