Last week, I was photographing in Zion while traveling with my family. I returned to a favorite location and was thrilled to find favorite red maples in fine autumn dress. My kids loved the spot, and they spent about an… Continue Reading →
I made this image yesterday. I’ve been driving by this spot almost daily and had decided that I would need my Tilt Shift lens to achieve sharpness from front to back. The morning was overcast so now I had the… Continue Reading →
Later on the same evening that I photographed Rock and Water, Cascade Falls, Yosemite National Park, California 2011, I also spent some time along the roaring Merced River. There is something magical about standing next to massive amounts of water… Continue Reading →
On a recent trip to Yosemite Valley, I spent some time photographing waterfalls. The water levels are still very high for this time of year, but they are down quite a bit from the highest levels earlier this spring. I… Continue Reading →
Practice, practice… I’ve been very frustrated lately because I haven’t been able to get out of the office and up to Yosemite for waterfalls, reflections in the meadow, corn lilies in the high country. Fortunately, my water lilies are in… Continue Reading →
I have been very overwhelmed with work and thus have a large backlog of images to process. I made this image last month at Happy Isle in Yosemite, which is an amazing place anytime but especially during high water. This… Continue Reading →

I have lived in the Sierra for 33 years, and I have always been thrilled when seeing the first buckeyes popping out in early spring. The leaves come out so fast that I have never caught that moment I have… Continue Reading →
This past week, I made around 700 exposures at a favorite location where the plains of the Central Valley meet the Sierra foothills near Fresno. The conditions were spectacular as the recent winter storms came and went, billowing clouds and… Continue Reading →
