The storm did end up coming my way. This photo was taken on day 3 of a 4-day solo kayak/camp trip through the Middle and Lower Florida Keys. I was paddling south, and hammock camping in the mangroves each night. I remember looking out at this storm and thinking, yikes I hope that isn’t headed […]
The “under” part of this photo was 33-degree water Shooting photos in the winter can pose some unique challenges (Cold fingers, lens fog, cold-crashing camera batteries). It took about 10 attempts before I was happy with this shot. This was an “over-under” photo (part underwater and part above water). Unfortunately for me, the “under” part […]
Lightning Fun Facts I was out on a “blackwater night dive” Capturing a flash of lightning in a photo can be pretty challenging, even in Florida (the state with the most lightning strikes every year, ~1.45 million strikes). This photo was taken about 5 miles offshore of West Palm Beach, Florida. I was out on […]
As we drove up to the Grand Canyon, [we knew it would be a unique experience] Before this trip, I had never been in Arizona during the winter. My last trip to the Grand Canyon had been with my family in July. It was one of the hottest experiences that I can remember. With that […]

This wanderlust destination provides sites unimaginable Seeing a waterfall in the desert is quite a surprising and startling occasion. Thrill fills you. The sound of the flowing water confuses. The mist spraying off refreshes you. Havasu Falls in the Grand Canyon provides this exact experience. Resting 1.5 miles outside of Supai, Arizona; this wanderlust destination […]
There are 50 bridges, most of which are one way! Waimoku Falls is the most stunning waterfall that I have ever seen. With its drop of over 400 feet, it is the tallest waterfall in Maui, and one of the taller falls across the Hawaiian Islands. It is located in the Kipahulu District of Haleakalā […]
We soon found ourselves in a rainforest wonderland When Jill and I were traveling on the Road to Hana, the Wailua Iki Falls were a fun detour. We started by following the directions of going up the hill on the trail and following it to the right. We stayed on this trail for maybe 50 […]

Located at the Flume Gorge, within Franconia Notch State Park, lies this picturesque 60-foot-tall waterfall. The Flume Gorge is one of the top […]
