For one week per year, an ancient lake-bed filled with alkali dust becomes the third largest city in Nevada. When it’s over, not a speck of debris can be found. It’s the largest Leave No Trace project in the world. Nearly 70,000 people, rich and poor, young and old, straight and gay, heavy and slim, make the journey to the …
I was deeply honored to be featured on Nikon’s Image Chaser Blog recently. They asked me to share how I use photography in my writing and blogging to share my travels and adventure sports. They kindly allowed me to republish the story here. Their blog is excellent and I suggest heading over there to check it out, the link is …
I play hard, get dirty, wet, and spend full days outside in below freezing temps – usually with a camera in hand. Photography is an important part of my life, but I have no patience for a camera that slows me down or takes crappy images. I need a rugged camera that also takes killer photos. I’ve found a few …
I picked my camera up for fun last night after nearly three months of only shooting work photos. A friend had invited me to view the wildflower bloom and sunset at Alta Ski Area about 35 minutes from my home in Salt Lake City. Realizing I hadn’t had my Nikon outdoors since I moved here, I gladly accepted and loaded …
Zion National Park completely impressed me when I visited over Thanksgiving weekend. While there, I hiked up to Observation Point to take in one of the classic views of the canyon. By the time I arrived, the sun was directly in my face, so most of my photos could be better. However, in this image, the sun makes the canyon …
Sometimes the best images aren’t the first ones we notice. Tonight I decided to go back through my shots of Glacier National Park looking for “second round” picks. I was surprised at the great captures I hadn’t paid attention to initially. If you’re not familiar, Many Glacier Valley is on the east side of the park. While you can see …
In September, I was one of a group of bloggers hosted by the Riviera Maya Tourism Board. We stayed at the Le Reve Hotel and Spa which not only offer lux boutique accommodations and awesome food, but some of the most spectacular sunrises I’ve ever seen. I would wake before dawn and wander down to the beach with my camera …
While I’ve had fun this winter playing in the snowy mountains of Utah, I can’t help but look forward to summer hikes in the Sierra Nevada mountains as well. The wildflowers and lakes, the mosquitoes…well I could pass on those. Regardless, we already have a few trips planned for summer and I’m looking forward to them. Photos like this one, …
After 25 years of hiking in Florida, I’ve developed an appreciation for the small details in the landscape, which others may miss. Florida’s landscape is often nothing but a sea of green and to the untrained eye. However, one of the things I love most about Florida’s landscape is how the light plays through the trees, reflects off the water …
2012 was a good travel year for me – especially the last half! My hard drive is full of great images that overwhelm my borderline ADD, so I challenged myself to select just three or less images from each destination to share with you in the form of a 2:10 video. Let me know what you think… Enjoy! For a …
