The Golden Gate Bridge has been shot to death, but this doesn't make it any less beautiful. I was lucky enough to be in the San Francisco area when there was a full moon, and I found a location from which I was able to capture the Golden Gate Bridge, downtown San Francisco, and the nearly full moon in a single frame. I couldn't have asked for better lighting than I got on the night I took this photo. Available in the following sizes (Panorama A): 30x10, 36x12, 48x16, 60x20, 72x24, 90x30, 90x30 Triptych (3 x 30x30), 108x36, 108x36 Triptych (3 x 36x36), 120x40, 120x40 Triptych Triptych (3 x 40x40), 144x48 Triptych (3 x 48x48), 162x54 Triptych (3 x 54x54), 180x60 Triptych (3 x 60x60).
Bird's Eye view of the Napali Coast
Nope, I don't own a drone (as of early 2020). I took this photo looking down from a “door's off” helicopter on the Hawaiian island of Kaua'i. In less than an hour in one of these helicopter rides, you can circle the entire island, and see more than you could ever hope to remember. I wonder if the pilots ever get sick of their job...? Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30.
Rialto Beach, which lies in northwest Washington, within the boundaries of Olympic National Park, is one of those rare beaches that has both a sandy beach which could work for swimming, and seastacks, which provide some visual interest not present in a white sand, blue sky beach photo. I shot this photo from an elevated position, after climbing a fairly-treacherous cliff as the sun was setting. By the time I'd reached the spot from which I wanted to shoot, the sun was already below the horizon, but I wasn't particularly bothered by this, because I had an idea that the sky would so what it frequently does after sunset on an evening free of clouds – form a beautiful gradient of blue to purple right at the horizon. The sky did exactly what I'd hoped it would, and I used a wide-angle lens to capture the vastness of the driftwood-strewn beach. Look carefully and you might find a tent among the driftwood! Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.

And as one can see in this photo, it did exactly as I'd predicted, and the result was spectacular!

Rialto Beach, which lies in northwest Washington, within the boundaries of Olympic National Park, is one of those rare beaches that has both a sandy beach which could work for swimming, and seastacks, which provide some visual interest not present in a white sand, blue sky beach photo. I shot this and several other photos of Rialto Beach and several of the more famous seastacks during a brief visit to the Pacific Northwest during the summer of 2018. The sun was setting as I took this photo, which explains the difference in colors of the left- and right-hand seastacks. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30, 60x40, 72x48.

Indian Beach, in Ecola State Park, on Oregon's northern coast, was one of my favorite of Oregon's countless beaches. This may have had something to do with the fact that I arrived just as the sun was setting, so many of the families that had spent the day here were packing up, or had already left, at the time of my arrival. The combination of a nice sandy beach, with numerous rocky features just off the shore, and pine-covered hills descending directly into the Pacific Ocean was common all along Oregon's coast. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30.

Hug Point, on Oregon's northern coast, is a great spot that isn't as popular or crowded as many of the other beaches in the area. The scenery is similar, though, and with a bit of scouting, one can find nice spots to capture images like this one. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30, 60x40, 72x48.
One of the most famous beaches in Oregon is Cannon Beach, but depending on the time of year one visits, it can be an absolute madhouse. Such was the case when I visited in July, 2018. Fortunately, I discovered a lesser-known park called Hug Point, which has a similar, if smaller, landmark to that for which Cannon Beach is known. I had to be careful with the timing of this photo in order to capture the reflection of the seastack shown here. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30, 60x40, 72x48.
Sunset at Perpetua Marine Garden Portrait
There is no shortage of spectacular spots along the Oregon Coast to photograph the sunset, but my July, 2018 trip to the Pacific Northwest only netted me one great sunset while on the Oregon Coast. I spent it at Perpetua Marine Garden, near the famous Thor's Well. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.

One of the general things I was most looking forward to during my July, 2018 whirlwind tour of the Pacific Northwest was the rocky Oregon Coast. This photo, taken from Face Rock State Scenic Viewpoint, showcases what much of the Pacific Ocean looks like just off the coast of Oregon. Although the set of rocky cliffs sticking out into the Ocean shown in this photo is massive, it doesn't have a name that I was able to find.
