More adventures in Canada in early 2008. This time it was a winter trip to Banff and Jasper in the Canadian Rockies. I had visited this area briefly in 2000 on my way to Vancouver. It had been in the spring of that year and a completely different [...]

In addition to a plethora of US trips, 2007 had me returning to Canada once again. Canada has always been a favorite destination of mine. The weather suits me, the people are great, and the country offers such a wide variety of locations to photograph.
I had whet my [...]

2005 was a year of assignments throughout the Midwest for me. I like to take driving trips when it makes sense. I enjoy driving and like to be able to arrive at a place gradually, to know what is between here and there, and to have some sense [...]

I attended my first SATW Annual Convention in 2004 in St. Moritz, Switzerland. It was an absolutely amazing trip. A highlight during the convention was a sunrise shoot from the peak of Mt. Pers in the Bernina Alps. A small group of us took the cable car up [...]

2001 slipped past me with no international travel. I’d had another Canadian trip in late 2000 and would go to the Yucatan peninsula in Mexico in early 2002, but the 12 month period that was 2001 was all US travel. The shots on this page came from a [...]

Happy New Year everyone! This time of year always makes one reflect on the past and I’ve been doing my share. I’ve also realized that this year is a landmark of sorts for me — it marks my first decade as a travel photographer.
Well… that’s not entirely true. I’ve actually been shooting and selling to [...]

One more from yesterday morning’s sculpture shoot. This is looking straight up from inside the structure but I like how it also looks like an alien tree-creature walking into a root-y cave.
Maybe it’s just me.
Have a happy and safe New Year’s everyone!

Ever since moving back to Lawrence, I’ve been meaning to take some photos of this sculpture on the KU campus. It’s a structure built of woven branches that surrounds a tree so that the living branches grow through its walls (I’ll have to get the name of it and the artist after the big pile [...]
