The swirling lines in the water are leaves as they leave a trail during a 25 sec exposure.

The castle was built in the 1400s by the Venetian Querini family on the ruins of the ancient acropolis. There are three churches inside, the one shown here is called "Virgin Mary of the Castle" and was constructed in 1853. In Greek mythology, Astypale was the sister of Europa.

Near and far: part of Dunnottar Castle standing on red sandstone conglomerate stone in the foreground, the cliff-top path leading around to the Stonehaven War Memorial in the distance.

Most people would be trying to take a photo of Slains Castle immediately hogging most of the field of view to the left. Me, I aimed for the coastline and made this study of the rocks instead. Yay rocks.

I like the triangular shape that the main space features of this church. I also like the silo framed by the breezeway. This image really feels like Idaho to me.

Swan Valley is probably one of the most beautiful locations in Idaho. I don't think it gets it's fair shake because there's not a ski resort here. It has the snake river running throughout the entire valley, closed in by mountain views on all sides. Maybe one day I'll get my shit together and buy some property here. I'd live in this church, to be honest.

I hate day shots for architecture, but sometimes it's the only option. I find that working the Cyan channel helps to bring back a lot of contrast & color when shooting in the harsh day light. I take that Blue channel for a ride as well.

The first time I saw this tree, it was just a flicker out of the corner of the windscreen as I zoomed past, but enough for a second look; on the return leg of that journey I stopped and caught it in magnificent light.

Then another local photographer made something of it on Facebook as well...

So I went back and tried it from a different angle, playing with long exposures ,with this result.

On a recent trip to Asia, I had one last night before a return flight from Bangkok, so I took a quick flight to Siem Reap in Cambodia to visit Angkor Wat, one of the most incredible spiritual sites in the world. Since i had a precious few hours in the morning, I hired a guide to take me to the best locations in this enormous complex of temples. This is one of the most famous ruins, Preah Khan temple, with the massive banyan tree growing around the old temple ruins.

I was so excited to visit here, having always marveled at the pictures of this beauty. I must admit though that I was initially disappointed when I looked over my photos from the trip. They all seemed rather "postcard-y", and nothing exceptional. I had to leave them for a couple of weeks, and only after some time away, and some tamping down of my own unreasonable expectations, I was able to isolate a few that captured the magnificence of the locale as best I could at the time. I processed this one in both color and black and white. There were some pretty splashes of mottled sunlight on the roots which I liked in the color version. I gave my daughter the choice and she chose the black and white version, so here we are.

I'd love to go back and spend a lot more time here, exploring at different times of day and weather conditions. While my guide was totally professional and helpful given my limited constraints, next time I'd do it just on my own, without a guide telling me where to shoot.
