Gallatin Gateway, USA
I’ve been trying out my new Hasselblad x2D. To a degree, this camera brings me back to my old view camera days. I’ve been working at much higher f-stops and thinking more about deep focus. While modern stabilization tech allows for handholding and much higher ISOs, I’m still finding the different aesthetics different and challenging. […]
Carlsbad, California, San Diego County, USA
There will be big surf along the CA coast this week. This photo was taken from the promenade in Carlsbad, CA. I thought the surf might be finished, but the big surf remains today, 4 days after the storms rolled in. In Northern CA, the waves were as high as 60 feet. Along with others, […]
Kauai, Waimea Canyon, Hawaii, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] One more Hawaiian double rainbow. This one was taken looking North, overlooking the Na Pali Coast. It was taken on a rainy day, with a little spec of blue sky peeping through, mid-afternoon in September. The light in Hawaii is often splendid, and this day was no exception. I’d say Kauai is the […]
Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] A day road trip through Yellowstone, even with the sun mostly overhead, can yield some lovely landscapes. This scene was revealed just after we passed over the Dunraven Pass’s crest and started heading North into the valley: nice clouds, light, nice color. Shadows were just beginning to lengthen. All together, Yellowstone rarely disappoints. […]
Livingston, Park County, MT, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] Out scouting locations on a windy day for a Blue Buffalo dog food commercial. The spot involved an airedale terrier dog, John, who had been trained to run with wolves. Luckily, the dog got along so well with the semi-trained wolves that he was the honorary ‘beta’ wolf. This was one of several […]
Outtaquechee River Trees, VT, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] The photo was taken in Outtaquechee, VT, on the Outtaquechee River. This tree was the first Sugar Maple to turn. I had been looking for variations on this theme, and I thought this one was striking, partly because it was fully red, and no other Sugar Maples had turned color yet. It’s not […]
Photo District Rooftops, New York, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] This photo was taken in 2006 from the offices of Lopes Picture Company, a production company located on 19th Street in New York City. I’d stared out that window on numerous occasions, but this day the light was just right, accentuating the mixed angularity, shapes and textures of NYC rooftops. While not a […]
Kauai, Hawaii, USA
This photo was taken from a boat while touring the Na Pali Coast of Kauai, Hawaii. The L16 camera is pointed NorthWest toward Japan, or maybe Vladivostok, across the big blue pacific ocean. The dynamic sky, combined with the utter minimalism of an empty ocean, was the inspiration for the photograph. While there is always […]
Madison River, McAllister, Montana, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] The Lower Madison River begins at the Madison Dam. The Madison River flows North to Three Forks, MT, where it joins the Jefferson and the Gallatin to form the Missouri. This photo was taken in early June 2023. Following a record snowy winter, a particularly rainy spring has kept the rivers and Ennis […]
Lewis And Clark Caverns State Park, Whitehall, MT, USA
[the_ad id=”61716″] This photo was shot just above the Lewis and Clark Caverns State Park RV campsite along the Jefferson River. The photo was taken right before a thunderstorm. The campsite is exceptionally well maintained, and the surrounding terrain offers beautiful footpaths and gorgeous Montana views. The Caverns alone are well worth the trip, but […]
