I was lucky enough to spend a few days in Mount Rainier National Park during the summer of 2018. Rainier is roughly the same height as many mountains in my home state of Colorado, but because it stands there on its own, rather than as part of a particularly noticeable mountain range, it seems much larger than the mountains in my home state. I took this photo from Sunrise (northeast of the mountain, itself), at sunrise, when the day's first light illuminated the glacially-covered mountain in beautiful, orange light. Available in the following sizes (Panorama B): 30x12, 40x16, 50x20, 50x20 Triptych (3 x 17x20), 60x24, 60x24 Triptych (3 x 20x24), 75x30, 75x30 Triptych (3 x 25x30), 90x36, 90x36 Triptych (3 x 30x36), 105x42 Triptych (3 x 35x42), 120x48 Triptych (3 x 40x48).
Seattle is a nice place. It reminds me of my (kind of) hometown of Denver, Colorado... but with an ocean. I'd love to spend some more time there. I took this photo from Kerry Park while attending a show in the city. It's a popular lookout, and, with views like this, there's no wonder why. Available in the following sizes (Panorama C): 30x10, 36x12, 48x16, 48x16 Triptych (3 x 16x16), 60x20, 60x20 Triptych (3 x 20x20), 72x24, 72x24 Triptych (3 x 24x24), 90x30, 90x30 Triptych (3 x 30x30), 108x36 Triptych (3 x 36x36), 126x42 Triptych (3 x 42x42), 144x48 Triptych (3 x 48x48).
I grew up in Colorado, and even lived in Denver for a short stint from 2006-2008, and yet, it took me until late 2018 to get a good photo of the beautiful city skyline. I took this photo on a fairly cold night in November, which helped to keep the air clear, and it was taken early enough in the evening that many of the office towers still had a fair number of interior lights on. The city has grown tremendously in the past couple decades, and it will be interesting to take another photo from the same location in another decade or so, and see how different the skyline looks then! Available in the following sizes (Panorama C): 30x10, 36x12, 48x16, 48x16 Triptych (3 x 16x16), 60x20, 60x20 Triptych (3 x 20x20), 72x24, 72x24 Triptych (3 x 24x24), 90x30, 90x30 Triptych (3 x 30x30), 108x36 Triptych (3 x 36x36), 126x42 Triptych (3 x 42x42), 144x48 Triptych (3 x 48x48).
I went on a Pacific Northwest trip during the summer of 2018, in which I intended only on shooting Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. But, as they so often do, my plans changed, and I ended up missing Idaho, but getting a bit of Northern California thrown into the mix. The coastline in Northern California is spectacular, and although I hadn't planned in advance on visiting False Klamath Cove, this photo that I took there, shortly before sunset, ended up being on of my favorites from the entire trip! Available in the following sizes (Panorama A): 10x20, 12x24, 16x32, 20x40, 24x48, 24x48 Triptych (3 x 24x16), 30x60, 30x60 Triptych (3 x 30x20), 36x72, 36x72 Triptych (3 x 36x24), 40x80, 40x80 Triptych (3 x 40x27), 48x96, 48x96 Triptych (3 x 48x32).
A swallowtail butterfly I spotted in Vietnam's Ba Vi National Park, northwest of Hanoi. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24.
I took this photo when I stopped to stretch my legs when I was riding my motorcycle from Hanoi to Tam Dao National Park, in Vietnam. I love Buddhist temples, and there aren't too many in Vietnam, so whenever I found one, I'd tend to explore and photograph it. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36.
When I think of east and southeast Asia, this is the photo that comes to mind. A solitary worker in a rice paddy. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24.
I lived in Hanoi, Vietnam for a few months in early 2012. It is a bustling city, and as a photographer that focuses primarily on nature and landscapes, I found it challenging to find the time to get far enough away from the city to feel like I was actually out in nature. So when I really wanted to take photos, I had to find interesting locations in the city. One such location was the Temple of Literature, where I got this shot. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45.
The English ability in and around Dalat, Vietnam, is quite low, so when I rented a scooter and drove around the region, I wasn't usually able to find anyone who could tell me about the things I found. One place I stumbled upon was some type of temple, wherein I found these – and many other – gold (painted) statues. I'm not sure what religion they represent, but it looks fairly Buddhist. A quick Wikipedia search informed me that almost 75% of Vietnamese report following either Vietnamese folk religion, or do not have any religious affiliation, so perhaps these figures are in some way connected to Vietnamese folk religion. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 10x8, 14x11, 20x16, 24x20, 30x24, 40x30.

This flower is called a burgmansia, which is unfortunately extinct in the wild. They are still grown ornamentally, though, and I took this photo near Dalat, Vietnam. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 10x8, 14x11, 20x16, 24x20, 30x24.
Alstrom Point, in Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, in southern Utah, is isolated and beautiful. I camped here in late March, 2018, and I only saw one or two other people while I was here. Apparently, Lake Powell used to be much deeper, and, perhaps, it will be again one day. I'd love to return here and find the foreground of my photo completely submerged. Available in the following sizes (Panorama B): 30x12, 40x16, 50x20, 50x20 Triptych (3 x 17x20), 60x24, 60x24 Triptych (3 x 20x24), 75x30, 75x30 Triptych (3 x 25x30), 90x36, 90x36 Triptych (3 x 30x36), 105x42 Triptych (3 x 35x42), 120x48 Triptych (3 x 40x48).
Yant Flats, in southwest Utah, is one of the best “hidden gems” I've ever found. As if there wasn't already enough to see and do in Utah! It isn't the easiest place to find, and to me, that's part of the appeal. When I spent an afternoon here in late March, 2018, I was one of only a handful of people that were exploring the area. The rock formations are spectacular, and the perfectly parallel lines almost look man-made. This is one place I am going to have to come back to! Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.

The interior of Geungnaksa Temple, on South Korea's Jeju Island. This temple is much like any other Buddhist temple in the area. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30.
Buddha's Birthday was always one of my favorite holidays while I lived in South Korea. I was an English teacher, so any excuse for a day off was always welcome, but I also loved to visit the Buddhist temples in the region, which would go all out decorating for this occasion. Traditional lanterns, like those shown here, would be put up and lit up at night. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 12x8, 18x12, 24x16, 30x20, 36x24, 45x30.
Upper Mesa Falls, in southern Idaho, is stunning, and, since it is in the middle of nowhere, the crowds tend to be minimal. At 114 feet tall and roughly 200 feet wide, it is truly a sight to see! I took this photo on a quick trip through Southern Idaho, but it left me yearning to return and spend some more time in this beautiful and rugged state. 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).
Shoshone Falls, sometimes referred to as “Niagara of the West,” is nearly 1,000 feet wide and, at 212 feet high, 45 feet taller than Niagara Falls. The quantity of water flowing over the rim can reach up to 20,000 cubic feet per second, and, while I don't know the volume of water that was flowing when I took this photo, it seemed quite high – high enough, in fact, to generate enough mist to create not one, but two rainbows, seen on the left side of this photo! Available in the following sizes (Panorama B): 30x12, 40x16, 50x20, 50x20 Triptych (3 x 17x20), 60x24, 60x24 Triptych (3 x 20x24), 75x30, 75x30 Triptych (3 x 25x30), 90x36, 90x36 Triptych (3 x 30x36), 105x42 Triptych (3 x 35x42), 120x48 Triptych (3 x 40x48).
