Yosemite is situated in the Sierra Nevada mountain range and is one of the most famous and most visited national parks in the US. For those of us that love the outdoors, Yosemite has everything: granite cliffs, waterfalls, rivers, streams, lakes, mountains, meadows, glaciers and sequoia trees, Yosemite has enchanted many for a long time. Galen Clark first championed the protection of Yosemite Valley, leading Abraham Lincoln to sign the Yosemite Grant in 1864. He was followed by John Muir, whose efforts helped establish a larger area beyond the valley to be included in what was to become a national park. The park gained even more acclaim through the photography of Ansel Adams. Adams' photo of Half Dome in 1927 named "Monolith" and his subsequent amazing black-and-white photos made Yosemite a must-visit location to the public. Yosemite's popularity continues today as more than 5 million people visited the park for the first time in 2016.
On the way to see Glacier Bay National Park, one has to navigate through the Alexander Archipelago. The archipelago is 300 miles long and is made up of about 1,100 islands. The islands themselves are really the tops of submerged coastal mountains that rise from the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. Between the islands and the Alaska mainland there is a series of channels, fiords and straits that are collectively known as the Inside Passage. It was so cool to be standing on the deck of our cruise ship and realize that we were sailing between mountain tops. This particular stretch of water is known as the Icy Straits and is near the entrance to the National Park.

There are times that photographers come across a scene that sets off alarm bells in their heads to shoot it. I know that this is not a typical subject that I normally shoot, but when I saw this piece of art in the Lightner Museum, the bells started going off. So why did this invoke my reaction? I guess experienced photographers just have a practiced eye for these scenes while in the moment, and it is only afterward when we analyze it that it becomes apparent why we were drawn to it. So, here is my analysis. The first thing that struck me was the curve of the window and the absence of other art pieces nearby that might have distracted the eye. The next thing was the mixture of light. Ambient light from the indoor lighting seemed to match well with the afternoon light coming through the windows. I think the color of the roof help transition and blend the two different types of light. The reflection of the windows in the polished floor also added to the overall feel. Lastly, the art itself was beautifully made and seemed to come alive in the photo. I wish I could tell you all of these things were in my mind when I shot this, but they didn't. It was simply the alarm bells going off in my head.
Fall is my favorite season of the year and I can't wait until the foliage comes to my home state of Connecticut. I think it will be late coming to CT this year, but I am hoping to see some great colors this week in Maine while co-hosting my buddy Jeff Clow's Maine Lighthouse Tour. The reds, oranges and yellows of the New England foliage season give the landscape such a vibrant look.
Until then, I am posting this shot of the foliage season in Colorado that I took last year. While not as varied in color as New England's, the Colorado landscapes more than make up for it with it's wonderful mountains as a backdrop. Here we are approaching Ophir Pass, about to cross over the San Juan Mountains to get to the famed Million Dollar Highway. What an epic drive with drivers extraordinaire Rick Louie and Chris Nitz navigating this treacherous road.

There is no better city to roam around in with no destination in mind than Venice, Italy. The history and age-old architecture is something to see. The city has such a romantic feel to it with all of it's canals and gondolas. What I really like is getting out from the main tourist areas to see what the real Venice is all about. There are gems found in almost every nook and cranny of the the city's back alleyways (canalways?).
For the photographer, compositions are found almost everywhere. The challenge in capturing some of these "backstreets" is balancing out the light and the shadows of the scenes. Cameras try to average out the light resulting in poor results (the human eye is much more effectively in this). The advances in editing software allow for easy fixing of the scene's highlights and shadows. This image, for example, was quite dark in the shadows, which hid the details and darkened the reflections. With a quick adjustment, the details and reflection just popped on out.
