We drove down February 25, 2024 for our honeymoon and with each winding turn, the mountains were surrounding us more and more. There were so many cabins in the distance, pastures, and quiet stretches of road where we were the only one driving for miles. There were very few small towns. Definitely Country Roads! We giggled, listened to music, and talked the whole time, randomly seeing a mountain or rock face and getting excited.
Everyday we found a new adventure (after taking advantage of the complimentary breakfast each morning, of course) whether it was seeking waterfalls, hiking, playing on the swings, snowboarding, sledding, or exploring railroads. We watched the sunset over the mountains each night of the week we were there, and left the fireplace lit all night to keep us warm. First of many adventures as husband & wife!

While five days is too short to properly explore the Faroe Islands, we lucked out with spectacular weather that made taking in the country's dramatic landscapes an absolute pleasure. While people often talk about the Faroe Islands as being very similar to Iceland, Scotland or Norway the truth is it is its own distinct destination with raw shoreline and distinct geological formations that make it truly unique to experience and explore.

Mini Series: Abandoned Gas Station
This is an older series, dating back to the summer of 2017. It was shot with my very first camera, my Nikon D3000. I’ve always had an aesthetic appreciation for deserted places. Shooting this area was the first place I genuinely indulged in that admiration. I aimed to create interesting compositions with junk, decay and ruin - which remains one of my favorite subjects to this day. I view urban abandonment as countless opportunities to explore and create “found” still-life images. Although I still had much to learn in Lightroom with editing, this series is a pleasant reminder of how I evolved as a photographer so far.
Abingdon, MD
Taken last year when COVID was in full swing - but, we still went outside so they could spend time with me safely!

We left the highest point, Clingman's Dome, and continued downwards onto the winding, curving roads. Back onto 441, we followed Oconaluftee River southward. We pulled over along the way to admire (and photograph!) creeks, meadows full of wild flowers, and wildlife. We spotted numerous elks roaming.
We ended up getting "lost" down an odd little road full of small houses, domestic animals, and bizarre decorations; we easily turned back on track. Continuing south towards Cherokee NC, we made our next stop Oconaluftee Visitor Center.
There was a museum, a homestead wonderfully preserved, to show how families lived and survived in the mountains 100 years ago. My Mom was delighted and wonderstruck imaging life on the homestead; I tried my hardest to capture that moment for her!
Another hidden corner in the city. I love getting alternate views of the environment we regularly drive by. I've learned that you should go places you're not allowed when the fences are open to do so.

After our trip around Apgar Mountains, we headed eastward. We drove route 2 through the Rocky Mountains until we met the rolling hills and plains. It felt like we were in a western movie; we even saw buffalo to top it off! We drove out to the town of Browning, where we met a woman in a curio store. She was very knowledgeable & gave us a map to our next destination - Two Medicine Lake & Running Eagle Falls. We saw some beautiful & curious things along the way!

We started our day early and headed east towards Glacier National Park. Instead of taking the main road to the entrance, I suggested driving the longer way around to explore, why not? We are glad we took the path less traveled because we saw some awesome sights all around the Apgar Mountains!
