Slippery stairs, ladders, and slopes stood between us and the base of Mooney Falls It was a harrowing descent down the slippery stairs, ladders, and slopes to get to the base of Mooney Falls. There were backlogs going up and going down on the mostly one person wide trail that took you from the top […]
I hope you do a double-take when looking at this green elfcup It’s really hard to tell what you’re looking at when you first see this photo. First of all, the shapes are very abnormal. The colors are atypical for the things we are used to seeing. Lastly, the dimensions are quite challenging to pickup. […]
The American Lobster resonates with vibrant colors When I took this photo, my hand’s were as cold as can be. Matt and I were diving off the coast of Maine near the Nubble Lighthouse, and the water temperature was about 42 degrees. I myself am susceptible to the cold, especially in my digits. My fingers […]

This sitka spruce was in Redwood National Park I took this photo while standing in a field of sitka spruce. The trees towered above me. I was overwhelmed by the sheer vastness of the trees that I saw. Being from the Midwest, I was shocked by the immensity of the trees in the Redwood National […]
Without Jill, I would have never taken this photo of the plumeria tree. I have to give most if not all of the credit of this photo of a plumeria to my wife, Jill. We were in Maui for our honeymoon, and we were driving the Road to Hana. About halfway through the morning, we […]
This pine needle photo was taken while hiking in the White Mountains I took this photo while on a hike with Matt in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. We were making our way to the peaks of North and South Twin Mountains when I saw these pine needles that were leaning over the trail. […]
Lower Antelope Canyon was formed by the erosion of Navajo Sandstone This is actually the second time that I have had a photo from Lower Antelope Canyon this year. As I mentioned in my first post, Lower Antelope Canyon is a photographer’s dream. If you’re looking to visit the canyon, be sure to book a […]
