Joshua Tree Sunset

2010-03-17T15:12:00.000-07:00

After the last show on our winter tour we made the drive out to Joshua Tree National Park. The clouds were starting to look good and the chance for good light was high. When we arrived, I had a few troubles finding something interesting yet simple to photograph. As the sun began to get closer and closer to the horizon, I turned back to a location I had seen on the drive in. As I sat and waited for the sun to set, we watched as this pink sky unfolded in front of our eyes.

On the Road

2010-02-14T15:16:00.000-08:00

We have been on the road non-stop for almost three weeks now with another four or five to go before we begin our summer schedule and do it all again. Along the way we have seen some amazing sunrises, incredible sunsets and many winter storms. The desert has been warm and the mountains bitter cold but we have managed to come back with many stunning images. But instead of updating my fine art images, this post is to show off a few of the fun times"on the road again!"

This roadrunner wasn't scared of anything... I think if you look to the right you will see why.

My favorite campground! Right below Mt. Whitney.

New Images

2010-02-14T12:45:00.000-08:00

While traveling around the Southwest on the winter show tour, we have made a few stops at places such as, Death Valley, Red Rock National Park, Joshua Tree National Park, The Owens Valley, The Alabama Hills, just to name a few. Here are a few of our newest images. Enjoy!

New Sedona

2010-02-07T11:24:00.000-08:00

A new image from beautiful Sedona Arizona. This area is at the end of a long scenic dirt road before you get back to town. We had been in Flagstaff for a speaking engagement and after a frame shattering disaster, transmission issues, too much rain/snow and not enough good light I was very pleased to have walked away with this image. I am in Las Vegas now waiting for the big black cloud to lift over Red Rock Canyon and hopefully see some nice light. Keep checking back to see what I come away with! Then we are off to Death Valley!

Snow Snow Snow

2010-02-04T12:33:00.001-08:00

Anyone who lives on the west coast has noticed the extreme abundance of snow that we have been receiving. Luckily we are currently on our winter tour so we have been able to enjoy the snow in the mountains, over the desert and even on a few coastal ranges. This particular image was no easy one to get. We had been driving around Yosemite Valley, where hundreds upon hundreds of trees had fallen due to the heavy low elevation snow that they are no used to. Around every turn we had to stop while work crews moved the trees covering the road only to go around the next corner and find another one down. Thats when I decided that we were going to go to this previously scouted area and wait for the light, rather than check out a few other areas and take the chance of hitting another downed tree. As we sat here and watched the sun rise, I knew that it was a good decision. Now, off to The Grand Canyon!

2010-01-08T20:25:00.003-08:00

While traveling up the northern California coast, I took a slight detour through the Jackson State Forest along Highway 20 between Fort Bragg and Willits. While traveling through the deep redwood forest I stumbled upon this rustic school house slowly sinking into the soft ground below. After a walk around the school yard I found many potential images but it wasn't until I walked along a rarely travelled trail that I stumbled upon this scene.

Northern California Coast

2010-01-07T13:09:00.000-08:00

I have been shooting around the Northern California Coast for a few days now. After many days of socked in fog, I was pleased to wake up to this red sunrise over Drakes Bay located along the Pt. Reyes National Seashore.

Another Colorful Morning in the Eastern Sierra

2010-01-02T12:35:00.000-08:00

I woke up to another colorful yet brisk morning today in Mammoth Lakes and made the short trek north to Mono Lake. I was originally going to shoot the sand tufas near Navy Beach but when I arrived at the parking lot down the unkept, snow-covered road, it had been travelled so little that I was reluctant to stop in fear of not being able to start moving again in the deep snow. I turned around and headed to the south tufas not to far away. While hiking through the dark to the tufas it was cold but I knew the potential for a beautiful sunrise was high. When I arrived to a previously scouted location, I was greeted with this vibrant pink sunrise.

Sunrise Over Mt. Tom

2009-12-31T09:40:00.001-08:00

What a bitter cold morning! I woke up nice an early around 4:30 am in the small town of Bishop along highway 395 in the Eastern Sierra. When i first rolled out of my sleeping bag (never easy when it's a handful below zero) the Sierras were covered in clouds. Usually a good thing, but this time, it covered the whole mountain. As I drove around aimlessly, scouting a spot to shoot, I ended up at this location, and as the sun began to rise, a nice layer of clouds rolled in from the west. When the sun began to rise over the snow covered Owens Valley, I watched some of the most exquisite light I have experienced in the Sierras and left with this image.

Seattle Skyline

2009-12-14T14:09:00.001-08:00

My newest cityscape image as seen from Kerry Park in Seattle Washington.

Low Elevation Snow

2009-12-10T14:25:00.000-08:00

As any people who have been on the West Coast these last few days know, the weather has been verrrrrry cold. With temperatures below freezing almost every night, San Francisco Bay Area residents were greeted with a covering of snow that left more snow than most residents had ever seen in the area blanketing all the surrounding hills and mountains. While hiking in the Las Trampas range, I stumbled upon this location near Eugene Oneil's historic Tao House over looking the San Ramon Valley. I did make it to the top where there was still about 1.5 inches still at days end. As I hiked down the hill to this location I had previously scouted on the way up, the mud was so slick, I fell and tumbled on my back, camera and all and slid about 40 feet down the hill. Luckily, I made it to this location, draped in mud just before the sunset.

The End of Fall

2009-12-03T09:18:00.000-08:00

As fall winds down, I feel like I took a pretty good stab at captureing the fall light. I hit the Napa Valley, North Cascades National Park, Big Sur, The Columbia River Gorge, all over Washington, Yosemite and The Eastern Sierra just to name a few. I know I usually come back with many stories of being attacked by people in the night, or getting stuck in freak snow storms, but other than a few late night police roustings, it's been pretty calm. Good News is, I have come back with plenty of images to share, bad news is, I cant show them all quite yet, because that would take away from the fun of the new releases. So for now I will give you these 4. Enjoy!

First Trip to North Cascades National Park

2009-11-17T15:36:00.001-08:00

The North Cascades National Park is Breathtaking! I assume the mountains under the cloud cover are too, but I wouldn't know anything about that. When the Pacific northwest autumn weather rolls in, I usually take to the canyon floors and photograph in the wonderful soft light, that the cloud cover and rain bring with them. This grove if found not far off the road near the entrance to the park.

A New Look at Old Images

2009-11-17T15:28:00.000-08:00

While looking through some old out takes, I found these images that didn't make the cut first time around.

Wet Days in The Greater Napa Valley

2009-11-17T14:54:00.000-08:00

After waiting 3 days for a storm to clear, I finally got some good light. I spent a lot of time up north near Healdsburg, Ca shooting the fall colored vineyards. I had previously scouted these locations but knew, that they would need the fall colors to really pop. After many visits and even more failed attempts, I came up with these...

Journey of Light Trailer Video
