Today, Mount Victoria is a small township with a large number of historic buildings and a few attractions including the Post Office, a Hall which is used as a cinema, the Imperial Hotel, the Toll Keepers Cottage and a museum at the railway station.
The town is the starting point for many bushwalks and features several lookouts over the Kanimbla Valley including the lookout from Mount Piddington.
The railway station, along with Lithgow, is the terminus for the Blue Mountains Line. The town is located at the junction of the Great Western Highway and the Darling Causeway to Bell. The Roads and Maritime Services is at present researching a major upgrade to the Great Western Highway with the view to bypass the township and the steep Victoria Pass down to Little Hartley to the west.

The climate varies with elevation. At Katoomba, (1,010 m or 3,314 ft) the summer average maximum temperature is around 22°C with a few days extending into the 30s (80s–90s °F) although it is quite common to see maximum temperatures stay in the teens when east coast troughs persist.
Night-time temperatures are usually in the teens but can drop to single figures at times.
During winter, the temperature is typically around 10 to 11 °C in the daytime with −1 °C or so on clear nights and 3 to 4 °C on cloudy nights. Very occasionally it will get down to -3C or slightly lower but usually the coldest air drains into the valleys during calm, clear nights.
The Blue Mountains is not known for particularly cold mornings compared to other areas on the Central Tablelands like Oberon, Bathurst and Orange etc.
There are two to three snowfalls per year although settled snow has become less common in recent decades. In the lower mountains, however, the climate is significantly warmer.
Annual rainfall is about 1,050 millimetres (41 in) in the Upper Blue Mountains with many misty days.

Mt Wilson, the heritage garden village, is in the World Heritage Blue Mountains, only 2 hours from Sydney. The area has magnificent natural bushland and rainforest, walks and canyons as well as historic houses and grand exotic gardens, some of which are open to the public.
Mt Irvine is adjacent to Mt Wilson, about 15 minutes further drive. It has a mountain rural setting of farms and fine gardens, bushland and rainforest, with magnificent views over the mountains and canyons of the Blue Mountains.

When I was scouting the Palouse last week with Jeff Clow, I was hoping to come across this house again that I had shot in 2015. I wasn't sure where it exactly was, but the map I was using delivered me to the right road and there it was. When I shot it last, the sky was overcast and was completely a monotone white. This visit was a little after sunrise, and what a different look it has with blue skies and golden hour light.
Since my last visit, I have learned a little more about this abandoned house. It turns out that it was built in 1885 (according to another photographer) and was actually a one-room schoolhouse named the Skeen School. The schoolhouse had a bell tower on its roof and, if you see the other side of it, you can see where the roof was patched where it once was. I haven't been able to find out any more information on it. I would love to know its history. It is currently used for storage and it looks like it could fall any day. That being said, when I was searching for information on it, the main thing I found were lots of other photographers posting photos of it wondering if it would survive a harsh winter. These musings date back at least 10 years, so it seems that the schoolhouse is resilient.

After a few weeks of posting photos from the American Southwest, I thought it time to move on to another favorite place today, Alberta. Many visitors to Banff National Park head north to explore the Icefields Parkway and some of the most beautiful landscapes you will ever see. Most of them never get past the Columbia Icefield, where they can walk onto the Athabasca Glacier (it is something that you should do at least once). For those that don't continue, they are missing some prime sights on the parkway the rest of the way to Jasper. The Canadian Rockies are just as beautiful in Jasper National Park as their brethren in Banff. As you drive up this 140-mile road, you see vistas that make you pull over and photograph them, like I did in this photo. Without stopping, one could probably do the drive in about three hours. For photographers like me, it is an all-day affair with a stop seemingly every mile or so.
When I looked at this scene of Maroon Bells, the words from the song "America the Beautiful" came immediately to mind. The song writer's wonderful words "...purple mountain majesty..." actually referred to another majestic mountain in Colorado, namely Pike's Peak. Regardless, the Rocky Mountains are so amazingly beautiful that I think the words can be used for any of the peaks.
Mountains tend to take on a purple tone during sunrises and sunsets. I am not sure what the scientific explanation is for the purple tint or, for that matter, any other color tints that mountains seem to take on. I believe that it has to do with a lot of variables, including the angle of the sun, and the amount of dust in the air to name two. Perhaps my love for mountains is because of the different "personalities" they take on when the light changes.
Normally, if I was standing at the bottom of the stairs next to Thunder Hole, I would be surrounded by tons of people vying for views of this popular stop in Acadia. Of course, when you arrive to witness the sunrise that begins when the sun peeks above the Atlantic Ocean on the horizon, the majority of visitors are still in their beds. It also helps that the main reason people flock to this place was not on display. This attraction gets its name from the loud thunderous sound when the tide is coming in and the right size wave hits a small inlet. Water typically sprays very high and wets the many people waiting for the sound. If the tide was in and the ocean cooperative, I wouldn't have been able to stand in this spot, as I and my camera equipment would be totally soaked.
This composition shows part of the Thunder Hole's surrounding rock wall on the right and Otter Cliff in the distance. Between these two point, the famous rocky and rugged Maine Coast is on display.

So many photos of this place, but at different times of day and at different times of the year, this place blooms new opportunity...
Loving the way the light came through here onto the water and through the early morning mist... Very cold though!
When you shoot a location many times, it is difficult to come up with a different look to a subject that has been photographed many times over. Of course, weather conditions, clouds and light can take the same composition from good to great. I really wanted to get a different view of Balanced Rock from the standard up next to it shot. From this angle, it looks quite small. In fact, the total height of the formation is 128 feet, with the rock that it balances stands 55 feet and weight an estimated 3,500 tons.
When I shot this, I thought the scene looked like pieces of a chessboard with a pawn in from of a castle on one side opposing a castle on the other.

There are times as a landscape photographer that I shoot way too wide and sometimes miss an important feature of a scene. Sure, the scene is usually in a wide-angle photo, but so are a lot of other details that confuse the viewer's eyes and they miss the important part. That is why I find myself trying very different compositions of the same scene, trying to capture the "right" one. Why not just shoot the "right" one in the beginning? My answer is that you don't always know which composition is the one until you get home and edit the image. All you know is that something in the scene caught your eye and compelled you to want to take the photo.
For this photo, I took probably 25 shots of this abandoned farmhouse in the Palouse. I took wide shots, tight shots and photos from all different angles and heights. It wasn't until I reviewed the images that I discovered what attracted my eye in the first place. It was the shadows of the roof line and how the sunlight came through the openings in the roof that drew my eye to see inside that window. Had I not varied my shooting, I might never have found what inspired me. My advice is to mimic this behavior and you might realize what drove you to take a photo. After all, shooting digital doesn't cost anything but time.
Here's the roof of Facebook headquarters! I took this photo last year when I was there doing a private photo walk through that rooftop garden with fun peeps from FB. I'll be back next week! The main reason for my trip to San Francisco is to raise some money for a nonprofit connected to Burning Man, but I'll also be visiting: Netflix, Google, YouTube, Adobe, and I'm excited to see the new Peak Design store! Send me a note if you happen to be at one of those places and we can have a hello! As for this photo of the FB roof, I'm looking forward to getting a new one with the Mavic 2 zoom. I just bought one and it has this cool new feature where it zooms in to 48mm and takes a panorama automagically.
The trip to Banff last month was a resounding success. Based upon the photos I have seen from my friends, their favorite place by far was Moraine Lake and for good reason. Every time I am asked where my favorite location in Banff is, my answer seems to change, but not anymore. Moraine Lake treated us with some amazing conditions from snow, rain, clouds and sunshine. Seeing it in all of those conditions has locked it in as my favorite location. Sure there is tremendous competition from all of the surrounding mountains, mountain lakes, waterfalls and glaciers but any lake that is surrounded by ten peaks (known as the Valley of the Ten Peaks) is usually the winner.
There have been so many photos of the lake posted by my friends (the disadvantage of being the last one home), I am posting my first photo of the lake with its always present canoes. I have always loved their color with the mountain peaks in the background.

16 days in to my 365 and I'm feeling a little like this bee. I've got the tools, I've got the know-how, but there's also that nagging self-doubt hounding at me each and every day. Can I really do one [non-lame] photo every single day for an *entire year*? Do I have that kind of commitment, dedication, willpower and drive? Can I ever get even close to the level of some of my favourite photographers or will I spend the rest of my life continually coming up short? Will my life have meant something when I die, or will I be forgotten by everyone except those close to me? At the end of the day, do my photos even mean anything to anyone? Or even just to myself?
I don't know if I'll ever be an amazing photographer. But I guess I'm willing to give it a go. Besides, if nothing else, at least I enjoy my own photography, and I guess that's all that really matters :)
