Our most memorable day of hiking during the Vancouver Island trip was around the China Beach/Mystic Beach area where the trails take you from the forest...
I had expected Victoria to be picturesque but I was taken aback by just how lovely the city and its famous waterfront is. I was also rather surprised at how compact...
Today’s hiking was around the China Beach and Mystic Beach areas near Jordan River on Vancouver Island. We arrived at China Beach pretty early (by vacation...
The textures produced by side light on undulating hills covered in wheat are mesmerizing. Add a few parallel tractor tracks and it gets even better (to me, at least)....
This is another view from Steptoe Butte State Park in Washington’s Palouse region. The rolling hills really do look amazing from up there if you are fortunate...
The colours of the Palouse are fantastic but, in this case, I decided that this image merited a monochrome treatment. It’s all about those rolling...
We’re back at my favourite derelict farmhouse on Weber Road near Pullman in the Palouse region of Washington state today. I posted a similar monochrome...
I don’t typically post iPhone images here (they tend to go on Instagram or my Tumblr blog) but occasionally, I take something on the phone that merits...
I’ve posted a couple of photos from this location before but here’s another shot of the derelict Weber House near Pullman, Washington, as seen...
Another view from the summit of Steptoe Butte in the Palouse, this time just before sunset. A really long lens was perfect for the location and Lightroom’s...
Flying out of Seattle is always a hit-and-miss affair for me. I try to pick a seat that will give me the best view of Mount Rainier but it seems that I normally...
I’ve still not found time to properly go through the hundreds of exposures I shot during our two shoots, sunrise and sunset last Friday, at Steptoe...
We spent quite some time at the Weber House on Saturday night. This shot was taken a couple of hours after yesterday’s one during the two hour window...
This derelict and decaying farmhouse on Weber Road in the Palouse is apparently a popular attraction for photographers visiting the area. When we went...
We’re wrapping up our NxNW2015 trip to eastern Washington today and I have yet to really look through the hundreds of images I gathered since Wednesday....
NxNW2015 is well under way and we’re having a blast up here in Washington taking pictures in Seattle and now out in the east of the state in the Palouse...
“The Bubbles”, twin hills seen in the distance, and Jordan Pond in Acadia National Park, Maine.
Part of the Atlantic coastline in Acadia National Park, Maine. This was taken at Thunder Hole shortly after sunrise on a lovely October morning last year...
Portland Head Lighthouse in Maine seen on a stormy day last October during our NxNW2014 photoblogger get-together weekend.
I’m delving rather far into the archives today with this shot taken early in the morning at Zabriskie Point in Death Valley during a 2010 trip out west.
