Iconic locations are iconic for good reason. The fun part about a location that 1000s of other people have photographed before you, is creating something that feels like it's all yours.
Last year the road to this alpine lake was blocked by snow fields. This year we were so happy to see the road was open. Bonus! a super bloom of wildflowers all around it. Yahoo!
I am just getting around to looking at some of my fall color photos. I remember this scene. We just arrived and I saw the this beautiful light on Mt. Sneffels. I almost fell over my tripod trying to get set up in time to catch it.
I really liked this little tree on the edge of Bryce Canyon. I liked it even more when sunset light brought it to life.
Even though we visited the park after the prime wildflower season, there were still some abundant patches to be found. I think I need to return next year.
Just returned from an AMAZING photo adventure with American Photo Treks LLC. Our last morning we were greeted with this beautiful view of Gothic Mountain in front of a hill of wildflowers
This is one of the most iconic photography locations on the planet. The experience of photographing it adds to the appeal.
You set up at least 90 minutes early. As predawn sunlight illuminates the horizon, the underside of the arch begins to glow and the beautiful valley floor is slowly revealed. It all builds to a single moment when the sun bursts. Love it.
I returned to this spot for sunset.
Just a minute before this, there were about a dozen people standing in the middle of the arch. They all left just as the sunset light started shining through the arch. Since Kay and I were behind the arch, we saw the scene differently and stayed a while longer.
Himalayan Thar and Red Panda
Both species live together without problems just like in their ancestral habitat.

Rocky Mountain National Park last Friday. Thank you Kathy Harding for being our model.
Just a Note; She is not quite as close to the edge as it looks. There is a section of rock in front of her you can't see because of the angle.
This spring evening it just occurred to me that I never shared my "real" photo of Firefall, taken this February 18, 2019 in Yosemite National Park.
I had captured Firefall before, two-years prior. So this time I wanted to find a different angle. That search took me to an extreme sideways vantage where I found four other photogs. We were all hoping to focus our attention on the water and the mist coming off Horsetail Falls. It only lasted for a minute or two, but mother nature didn't disappoint.
Aurora photogs, hard at work. I was so tired this night, I thought about taking a nap on my tripod. But I woke up in a hurry when the northern lights lit up the whole night sky.
These guys are not the easiest photography subjects to capture either. Of course I mean the lights, not the photographers. :)
We constantly said, we'll sleep when we get back to the US. Yeah, that has kinda turned out to be the case. I've been dragging.
The Tank Traps at shell Bay were designed and placed to thwart invasion into Poole Harbour during WW2.

The huge snowfall that occurred while we were in Yosemite created so many unique visions. This was one of my favorites.
We had a beautiful light, clouds and inversion for a short time Monday morning. Rainier has glaciers on the cap. A very interesting and majestic mountain.

I have been at a cabin north of here for the better part of the last week. I love it there. More to come...
This little church sits near a sea cliff on the west side of Iceland. To me, the black color and isolation always made it look a little foreboding. The day we stopped by, the clouds and light added to the mysterious nature.
