A White Pocket Golden Morning

This was one of my last photos taken on my visit to White Pocket.  This mound is one of the most photographed landmarks at White Pocket.  While I was taking photos this morning, I enjoyed the company of a professional photographer from Korea. He and a coworker had been camping here and taking images during […]

White Pocket Sunrise

I had reconned this location the night before.  It was my planned milky way photo to capture that mound at night, which an overcast sky denied.  See my White Pocket Sunset page, which shows the cloud cover.  However, that concept would have been cool, if I could have also capture the milky way reflecting in […]

White Pocket Sunset

Returning late back into the White Pocket area missing  the evening golden hour I  centered my attention on framing up this image mostly because of the interesting cloud structure. Isn’t that ripple on the left side of the mound exceptional?  This image is a composite of six photos.  Three photos of the sky at 2 […]

White Pocket Steps

During this early morning blue hour period the dominate East side mound can be found gaining some of the first morning light of golden hour, while the foreground still retains a bit of the blue cast. This is series of 8 images with an exposure range of 3.2 to 1.3 seconds with a -7/10 exposure […]

Church Rock

A common route taken on my annual photography trips into the Arizona and Southern Utah area is along the US Highway 160.  On this particular trip the clouds were remarkably fluffy.  Though I was running late, as I approached Church Rock Valley, the scenery demanded a pause to attempt to capture an image.  This image […]

Kite Hill’s Cityscape

A movie favorite with my family is 10 Things I Hate About You.  The movie supposedly takes place in Seattle.  A previous trip to Seattle allowed me to visit the famous Fremont Troll which was used in that movie, but that was a trip without a rental car.  So I only went there.  The Gas Works Park […]

A Seattle Night Revealing Mt Rainier

This image is a continuation of my time at Kerry Park.  Just like my earlier captured golden hour image, this composition was from that exact camera position, which offered a prominent shot of the Seattle skyline with Mount Rainier in the background above the tops of smaller buildings.   From golden hour through blue hour into […]

Seattle Skyline with Mt Rainier

With my business trip ending, I took a chance to visit Kerry Park.  The composition from Kerry Park would offer a prominent shot of the Seattle skyline with Mount Rainier in the background above the tops of smaller buildings.   This location is referred to as the postcard shot and it is ever bit of […]

A Post Super Bowl KC Blue Hour

The Saturday evening after the Super Bowl the Kansas City lights proudly glow in red to celebrate the Chiefs achievement.  This image was taken atop the National World Ward I Museum and Memorial on the Liberty Memorial Tower’s patio on the Northeast side.  This was a very crowded situation with both photographers and social media […]

A Tree Frames The Cathedral

When bad weather deviated my plans to visit the Wave, I retreated South to Sedona to photograph a few locations.  Taking a picture of the Cathedral Rock was one of the prime subjects I wanted to capture.  Research showed that along the Upper Red Rock Loop Road there were several scenic overlooks that were popular […]
