When I visited Bryce Canyon in late February, 2019, there was an unusually high amount of snow. So much, in fact, that the hikes that weave through the canyon were closed, due to avalanche danger. Without any idea what to do with midday light in a location that is at its best at sunrise and sunset, I asked a ranger for recommendations. She suggested the “Mossy Cave,” a few miles away. A short hike led me here, to what, at the time I took the photo, would much more accurately be described as icy than mossy. It was an interesting sight, and one that probably doesn't occur with tremendous frequency. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30, 60x40, 72x48.
I'd been hoping to hike to “The Subway,” which lies in the heart of Southwest Utah's Zion National Park, for about a decade before I was finally able to pull it off on April 18, 2017. A special back-country permit is required to hike here, but the mild annoyance of dealing with this, and the difficulty of the hike itself – I would be lying if I said the hike was anything other than difficult – proved to be completely worth it when I finally reached this unbelievable, natural formation. Obviously named because of the shape of the canyon itself, “The Subway” simply must be seen to be believed. Available in the following sizes (Panorama A): 20x10, 24x12, 32x16, 40x20, 48x24, 48x24 Triptych (3 x 16x24), 60x30, 60x30 Triptych (3 x 20x30), 72x36, 72x36 Triptych (3 x 24x36), 80x40, 80x40 Triptych (3 x 27x40), 96x48, 96x48 Triptych (3 x 32x48).

The hike to reach Kanarraville Falls is a medium-length, medium-difficulty hike along a riverbed that eventually turns into a slot canyon. It lies just to the north of Zion National Park, and is a great way to spend some time in the area, particularly if one is sick of dealing with the crowds at this beautiful, but sometimes annoyingly crowded gem of a National Park. Although I typically try to avoid having man-made stuff in my photos, I like the rustic look of this ladder – I really think that without it, this photo would be far less unique. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.

It lies just to the north of Zion National Park, and is a great way to spend some time in the area, particularly if one is sick of dealing with the crowds at this beautiful, but sometimes annoyingly crowded gem of a National Park. This is the slot canyon leading to the increasingly-famous Kanarraville Falls, taken a few hundred feet before the falls was visible. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
There are almost 100,000 glaciers in Alaska, and most of them aren't named. Most are inaccessible, but some – like the Worthington Glacier, located on the Richardson Highway, which runs from Glennallen to Valdez – are on the side of the road, and easily reached on foot. I walked up to this glacier during my summer, 2016 visit to the largest state in America, and carefully made my way to its terminus (the end of the glacier). From there, I was able to look into the ice cave that had formed here, although I didn't dare go any further. Perhaps another time. But for now, I'll settle for this beautiful shot of one of these rapidly retreating natural wonders. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30, 60x40, 72x48.
Carlsbad Caverns National Park, in southeastern New Mexico, is one of the most accessible cave systems in the world. Although over 120 miles of caves have been mapped in the region, only a small portion of them are open to the public. This feature of the caves is called the “Painted Grotto.” Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30.
Carlsbad Caverns National Park, in southeastern New Mexico, is one of the most accessible cave systems in the world. Although over 120 miles of caves have been mapped in the region, only a small portion of them are open to the public. This famous structure is called, fittingly, the “Rock of Ages.” Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45.
Carlsbad Caverns National Park, in southeastern New Mexico, is one of the most accessible cave systems in the world. Although over 120 miles of caves have been mapped in the region, only a small portion of them are open to the public. This shot is of “The Big Room,” which measures almost 4,000 feet long, 625 feet wide, and 255 feet high at its tallest point. Available in the following sizes (Panorama A): 20x10, 24x12, 32x16, 40x20, 48x24, 48x24 Triptych (3 x 16x24), 60x30, 60x30 Triptych (3 x 20x30), 72x36, 72x36 Triptych (3 x 24x36).
