Out in the Mojave National Preserve in California, Cima Road passes through the densest forest of Joshua trees I've ever seen. The recent re-paving of Cima road added to this image nicely.
I recently had a most exception life experience, I flew in a helicopter to photograph the erupting volcano in Iceland. We got very close and hovered just above it. We also landed closely to make ground based images. This was the evening of the first night arriving there and even though the...
I've been here a few times and have recently found some angles not seen by ground based photographers. I just returned from a 12 day adventure chasing the summer monsoon storms and trying to stay cool in the unusually high temps. VOTG is always a good stop and a wonderful place to camp in the...
At least my camera was at the moment I pressed the shutter. ICM, actually. You just never know how these will turn out, so it's always a pleasant surprise to get a keeper.
In the center of Lake Bled, a popular destination in Slovenia, is Bled Island. I spent two days monitoring the island for the best light and conditions. It has a Baroque church that contains fresco elements from the 15th century. I never got to go on the island, but I photographed it from...
Not your mainstream luxury adventure destination, but it can be. I just spent 12 days there and it is a fabulous country. Very beautiful, as most of it is forested mountains and crystal clear Azul rivers. The place is super clean with an environmental approach that no one can match. Here are...
I can't go to this place without thinking of Ben. He introduced me to this area and I am forever grateful. He would have loved this particular morning at Skyline last week.

Hi Focal World friends,
I'm booking a cabin on a small ship to explore Antarctica in Feb, 2025. I need a roommate to share the nice room. This is a fabulous bucket list trip, and expensive. If anyone is interested, please contact me. Thanks.
Unless a quick opportunity appears unexpectedly...
From a visit just days ago to the Big Sur coast of California. I never spent so much time at and over the coastline here. A ten frame (2x5) pano from my Mavic 3.
Happy New Year to you all!
The Monarchs have arrived at the Ellwood Preserve in Goleta, CA. This is a winter roosting place for them. They huddle en mass in the eucalyptus trees at night and as it warms up in the morning they head out for breakfast on these adjoining shrubs. Super fun shoot!

Made the journey to see the rare and occasional existence of Lake Manly in Death Valley. The phenomenon occurs only when there is substantial rainfall in a short period of time. That happened out there recently. The 'lake' is miles long but a consistent 4" deep throughout. Only when you see...
