A Thanksgiving Snow to Remember, Shenandoah 2014
On Thanksgiving Day, a deep snow fell across Shenandoah National Park. That evening my daughter said she wanted to see sunrise in the snow. So we headed out at 430 and arrived for a sunrise to remember and found, surprisingly, Skyline Drive was open to allow patrons to reach Skyland Resort...
Teton Fall 2013
I finally made it to the Tetons for its peak fall colors. But a few days of early snow and strong winds made the shooting a real challenge. Fall foliage was battered in many places of the park but there were a few exceptions, including especially Oxbow Bend...

La Jolla, California August 2012
In summer heavy banks of fog shroud most sunrises and many sunsets near La Jolla, California. When the sun breaks through, especially at sunset, though, the scene can be dazzling or, sometimes, subtle such as when the sun glimmers through walls of fog just above the vast ocean...
Shenandoah Rains 2012
June brought cool temperatures and rain to Shenandoah, which provided just the opportunity I have been looking for to explore South River Falls. These waterfalls have a very limited observation tower across from the falls so I have wanted for some time to hike a couple more miles down and back up to the foot of the falls...
A Walk in an April Snow, 2012
My plans for Earth Day consisted mostly of a short hike in Shenandoah. I expected light rain and hoped to hike a couple of miles to some waterfalls. What I got was a rain that quickly turned into a steady blowing wet snow that painted spring's emerging leaves and woods in several inches of snow...
Christmas in the Tetons. 2011
Christmas 2011 was a special time in the Tetons. While the snow was nowhere near what it usually is, the frequent clear skies afforded more opportunities to watch that amazing spectacle of the first rays of sunlight turning the Teton peaks into a fiery glow of orange and red...
16 Days in Shenandoah - Autumn 2011
The majestic fall season in Shenandoah National Park can give way quickly to winter. Here are some photos that reflect that transformation, from the early colors of the berry bushes in Big Meadows, to the fall splendor in White Oak Canyon, to an early snow even as fall's last leaves flash their splendor...
Torrey Pines, CA
Joshua Tree NP 2011
Below are a few images from an afternoon in Joshua Tree National Park. Joshua Tree is located less than an hour from Palm Springs and is the intersection of the Sonoran and Mojave Deserts. It is a seemingly barren place with strange and mysterious rock piles and its namesake, the Joshua Tree...

Yosemite - June 2010
San Juan Mountains - September 2008
I made a spontaneous trip to the San Juan mountains after reading from some photography friends that a big snowstorm looked to dump a lot of snow in the higher elevations even as the aspen just reached their prime...
Moulton Barn Sunrise 2007
A long walk in -26 degrees through modest snow brought me to the Moulton Barns where I was able to witness a glorious sunrise strike the mountains peaks of the Grand Tetons and then descend down into the valley...
