I went out one night just outside of Scottsdale, when it looked like there might be a spectacular sunset. It was underwhelming, but the late-evening light on this saguaro, and the storm clouds above made for a good composition. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
“The Wave,” in northern Arizona, was made famous by a Windows XP wallpaper many years ago. It subsequently became famous enough that, in order to keep the wilderness wild, the Bureau of Land Management decided to allow access to only twenty people per day, decided by a lottery. I'd wanted to visit “The Wave” for several years before I finally won a ticket to visit in late January, 2019. The entire region is spectacular, filled with otherworldly geologic formations and beautiful rocks in shades of pink, orange, red, and yellow. I took this photo a couple minutes from The Wave, and may actually like this one better than any photos I captured of The Wave. I could not have asked for better lighting. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.
I arrived in Churchill on October 29, 2018, and had a relaxing, do-nothing day before meeting my tour group on the morning of the 30th. From there, we spent almost every moment of daylight driving around near Churchill – the “Polar Bear Capitol of the World” - searching for bears. This was the first one I saw. I love the composition I was able to get here, with the blue sky above and the icy-cold waters of Hudson Bay contrasted beautifully with the gray rocks, white snow, and, of course, the bear walking into the frame. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45.
Some of the most expensive real estate in the United States is located, unsurprisingly, in Manhattan. Referred to as “Billionaire's Row,” this section of New York City has apartments that have sold for over $100 million dollars. Not a bad spot, if you can afford it! Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
I went on a quick trip to a lot of America's bigger cities in the Northeast and the Midwest in the fall of 2018, and one of the cities I was fortunate enough to visit was Philadelphia. I'd heard no visit to the city would be complete without stopping at the Art Museum Steps (where Rocky went on his famous run), and the view it provided of downtown and “The Oval,” complete with the statue of George Washington. It certainly lived up to the hype! Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
I visited a bunch of big, American cities on a whirlwind tour of the northeast and Midwest United States, during the fall of 2018. I had one evening in Washington, D.C., and I spent it wandering the National Mall, taking photos of the famous buildings and memorials. One of the advantages to visiting the National Mall at night is that there aren't a million tourists wandering about, so it is possible to photograph famous sights without crowds. This statue is of the sixteenth President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.

I had one evening in Washington, D.C., and I spent it wandering the National Mall, taking photos of the famous buildings and memorials. It was a fairly dismal night, which resulted in a very moody sky. The structure shown here is the Washington Monument, which commemorates George Washington, the first President of the United States. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.

I went on a quick trip to a lot of America's bigger cities in the Northeast and the Midwest in the fall of 2018, and one of the cities I was fortunate enough to visit was Pittsburgh. I'd never been there before, and, after a bit of research, decided to shoot the city from the Grandview Overlook, to the south of downtown. The view was extraordinary – I had no idea Pittsburgh was so beautiful! The surrounding mountains seem to have lead to a fairly dense downtown, as can be seen here. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
Crystal Mill, near Marble, Colorado, is something of a Colorado icon. It isn't incredibly easy to reach, but one can do it in a four-wheel drive vehicle, or by walking a few miles along a 4WD road. You're never going to have this view to yourself, but it is worth checking out either way, if you can find the time to do so. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.
Colorado is a beautiful state, filled with huge mountains, beautiful lakes, and, of course, nearly endless aspen groves. I took this photo of a Forest Service road winding through one such grove near Crested Butte, Colorado, in the fall of 2018, just as many of the leaves in the area began to change from green to yellow. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
Kebler Pass, which runs west from Crested Butte, Colorado, through Gunnison National Forest, is a (mostly) gravel road that, because of its elevation, is closed in the winters. Between late spring and fall, however, it is accessible by any vehicle, and allows those who are interested the opportunity to see some of Colorado's most beautiful aspen groves, such as the one shown in this photo. I took this photo just as the aspen trees were beginning to change color, so there is a spectrum of green and yellow leaves shown. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.

Between late spring and fall, however, it is accessible by any vehicle, and allows those who are interested the opportunity to see some of Colorado's most beautiful aspen groves. I took this photo shortly before sunset, when the leaves of the aspen trees between those shown here and the sun filtered the light in a unique way, that gave these aspen trunks something of a surreal look. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.

In the autumn, when the leaves turn yellow, the area is especially beautiful. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
There's a lot to see along Independence Pass, outside of Aspen, Colorado. I drove across Independence Pass during the summer of 2018, en route to an art fair in Aspen, and made sure to give myself a bit of extra time for exploration and photography. I saw a sign for “The Grotto” during my drive, and decided to check it out. Having captured this photo, I'm certainly glad I took the time to explore! Available in the following sizes (Rectangle A): 8x10, 11x14, 16x20, 20x24, 24x30, 30x40, 40x50, 48x60.
Cathedral Rock and Oak Creek Portrait
I've visited Crescent Moon Picnic Area, in Sedona, Arizona, many times, and while it is always beautiful, it was on this visit, in the spring of 2018, that the conditions finally worked out how I wanted them to. Storm clouds above, direct light hitting Cathedral Rock in the background, water flowing through Oak Creek in the foreground, and freshly-green leaves on the trees along the shore all came together to create this photo. Available in the following sizes (Rectangle B): 8x12, 12x18, 16x24, 20x30, 24x36, 30x45, 40x60, 48x72.
