Portland Waterfront Reflection

On our way to Canada we spent a night in Portland, Oregon. I dragged my poor darling wife into the freezing icy cold snow covered paths that run along the Willamette River for this shot. I'm pretty sure she was miserable but didn't complain once. Worth it!

Vancouver Harbor Water Reflection

Similar to the last shot but with a warmer tone. I forgot to switch my camera's white balance to night, but I quite like the result.

Vancouver Harbor Waterfront Night Reflection

Got this nice reflection of the lights on the Vancouver Harbor from the waterfront walkway after arriving in Canada and the immediately heading out from our hotel to set up my tripod and snap some long exposures.

Salmon & Halibut

In the window of some restaurant on the Vancouver Harbor waterfront. I couldn't resist.

Boats

Pano of some boats in the Vancouver Harbor in font of the city.

Vancouver Harbor Black & White

When you can't get the colors right I say make it black & white. More boats docks in Vancouver Harbor.

Ducks

Canadian ducks in Vancouver Harbor on a cold winter morning.

Panoramic of Vancouver Harbor from Stanley Park.

Ducks On Icy Beaver Lake

These Canadian ducks were waddling around on the ice covered Beaver Lake in Stanley Park, Vancouver. Behind them was a beaver den. I got this show with my 70-200 and then cropped it a bit closer.

Jellyfish

Fun shot of some crazy looking jellyfish at the Vancouver Aquarium in Stanley Park. It's fun to think that our planet is home to such crazy creatures.

Megan At The River

Megan in some soft morning light on the San Lorenzo River in Henry Cowell State Park. We took a nice hike through the woods for her birthday and enjoyed reading our books and taking photos by the riverside. It was an awesome day.

Hair Flip

Megan flipping her hair in the air at the San Lorenzo River, Henry Cowell.

Santa Cruz Harbor

Panoramic of the Santa Cruz Harbor taken later in the day with some soft evening night.

Bunny

I caught a photo of this little bunny with my 70-200mm lens while it was munching grass in my parent's yard.

Home

Nestled in-between the redwoods and the pygmy forest is my family's home. Originally a log cabin surrounded by redwoods, my parents have cleared space for a yard, garden, orchard, barn, basketball court, you name it. The original cabin has been expanded in just about every direction. A very special place for me and my loved ones.

Mendocino Seagull

Down at the tide pools I got this California gull photo with my 70-200mm lens.

Willie & Trev Backpacking

Evening Reflection On A Perfectly Still Lake

Awesome evening light reflecting a breathtaking view on a perfectly still lake in the Yosemite Wilderness.

Sunset After A Thunderstorm

Caught this amazing sunset right in front of our campsite after a crazy thunder and rainstorm that passed right over our heads.

Lantern Reflection At Dusk

Playing with long exposures and a solar-charged lantern after dusk following another day of backpacking in Yosemite.

Yosemite Milky Way

When I went to sleep the nearly full moon was out and I could barely see any stars. But when I awoke sometime in the wee hours of the morning the moon had set and I grabbed my camera for a short Milky Way photo shoot before crawling back into my sleeping bag.

World Class Hiking In Yosemite

About twenty miles deep into the backcountry, not long after climbing this ridge, then another steeper one behind it, my Dad looked around at the breathtaking granite landscape and said, "Doesn't get much better than this. This is some world class hiking right here."

Yosemite Wilderness Lakes

Another spectacular view of the Yosemite back country lakes that we backpacked to on our 2017 trip.
