We made it to the weekend! Let’s enjoy another “Landscape Story”: a photograph accompanied by a creative narrative.
I took this shot in Kauai, HI, when I was surprised by an inquisitive neighbor…
HELLO GECKO
The world stands still under this tropical sun
Yet in the shadows, the subtlest of movements
A dazzling green face appears
Quizzical, studying me
With eyes as deep as black pearls
For a moment, neither of us moves
Then in a flash
The resplendent mirage is gone

Happy Friday! Winter is when I have to curtail most of my photo travels, and this season has been especially busy with projects keeping me home. But that doesn’t stop the dreaming and planning for upcoming trips.
ITAP of rolling hills of wheat during autumn harvest which is also my next destination. I plan to head back here in late March to capture these hills in the light green of spring.

The weekend is here, so it’s time for another one of my “Landscape Stories”: a photograph accompanied by a creative narrative. I took this photo deep inside Death Valley National Park, hiking by flashlight well before dawn so I could be in position to catch the lowest angle of sun rays across the sand. That’s what makes these ridges look so big—in reality, each is only about 1” high.
LEADING LINES
Can you feel it?
The gravity of the wild
Drawing you in to sweeping landscapes
Where distant mountains beckon
It starts with your eye
That follows these natural lines
Pulling your feet forward
Leading your soul to adventure
