Door Handle Abstracts

truck door

I spend a lot of my time looking for new and interesting images by framing things we see every day and putting a frame around them.  On my trip to the Palouse last June, I spent a lot of time looking at abandoned things and especially cars and trucks.  This image was taken through a driver’s side window of an old truck and then I did a little post-processing magic.  I love the texture and that it takes a minute to figure out what you are looking at.  I have a few more like this that I will publish soon.

Classic Dolomites

One of the most picturesque areas of Italy is the dolomites. The mountains and villages are straight out of a storybook.  This little valley is just one of those places.  Not too many places have a view that lloks like thgis.  I have been to the Dolomites a few times and each time find new locations that make the area so special.

Always Turn Around

If there is one thing I teach while doing workshops is that you must always be looking. You need to look behind you, around you and even what’s at your feet.  Too often photographers get so engaged with what is in front of them, tat they miss the real shot that may be actually behind them.  This image is one of those.  I was shooting at the grand canyon looking at this beautiful overlook being lit by the sun set.  I was so engrossed in what I was doing that I forgot to look behind me.  When I did this is the image I saw.  So, always be looking.

Luminous-Landscape Iceland Workshop Days 4 & 5

Day 4 & 5 of the Luminous-Landscape Winter Iceland workshop.  Weather changed a bit as to be expected.  Extremely high winds came in and that made photography challenging.  We haven’t had real good light for sunrises or sunsets the past few morning but we are out there anyway.  With the kind of lighting we were challenged with went withB&W for a number of today’s photos. We are here until next Thursday and have waterfalls on today’s agenda.  More coming. A number of clients on this trip have been with me before on workshops.  Always good to see and photograph with friends.
