Yosemite Falls
Yosemite National Park has been closed for the past 2-3 weeks due to fire. It is finally reopening. I feel bad for all of the families who planned their vacations months or more in advance as I always do. We visited Yosemite National Park last year and did not have […]
Devil’s Tower National Monument
On our recent family vacation to South Dakota/Minnesota, we made a side trip into Wyoming to see Devil’s Tower National Monument. Devil’s Tower is a really unique looking mountain that was used in the filming of Close Encounters of the Third Kind. “Devils Tower (also Bear Lodge Butte[6]) is a […]
Dead Lake Sunset
For our family vacation this year, we spent a week exploring South Dakota including Custer State Park, Badlands National Park, Mount Rushmore and Devils Tower Wyoming, and then spent a week relaxing at my parent’s cabin in Minnesota. Their cabin is on Dead Lake which is in the northwestern part […]
Badlands National Park Moonrise

Badlands Bighorn Sheep
One of the best photography experiences I have ever had happened recently in Badlands National Park in South Dakota. We spent the day exploring Badlands National Park and then had dinner and went to our cabin. I decided to head back to the park for sunset and my oldest daughter […]

Elephant Seal Rookery

Disney Cruise
Last year over Thanksgiving break we went on our second Disney Cruise on the Disney Dream. The kids really enjoyed it and I managed to grab a few decent shots of things other than my family. The shots today are mostly from Disney’s private island, Castaway Cay with the exception […]
Pebble Beach, California
During our California trip last summer we took the Pebble Beach 17 mile drive drive just South of Monterrey. Overall, the drive was a bit disappointing as a lot of it was through neighborhoods with limited scenic viewpoints. The Lone Cypress is the emblem for the Pebble Beach golf tournament […]
