Arches National Park like I had never seen it
in journal
Less than ideal weather and some upcoming major changes in our lives led me to cut my road trip short and head back home, in the Midwest. However, the gods of photography had a very different idea in mind for me. A series of circumstances led me to Moab, Utah, where I found the best conditions (and images) of the whole trip so far.

Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah, May 2019.
Sometimes, you just get lucky. I've been to the Salt Flats in Utah a few times, but I had never seen like this morning in May 2019. Recent rainfall had flooded the area with 1-2 inches of water, creating a landscape like no other. The reflections on this calm water were out of this world.

The long way back home
This is the last video from the road trip. It documents the long drive back home, after 3 months on the road. Hairball was kind of falling apart, so that made the trip a bit... interesting. I hope you enjoy it.

Safety when photographing in the outdoors
in journal
I like to get out in nature, away from the crowds. Even though I’ve been pretty far from civilization at times, I’m aware that you don’t need to be in a remote place for something bad to happen to you. Anything could happen at any moment, anywhere. If you get hurt and can’t walk, 1 mile becomes 1,000.
In this video, I talk about some of the safety measures I take when I photograph in the great outdoors.
Always keeping in mind that there’s no such thing as a risk-free life and we must embrace some degree risk, this is about minimizing the chances of something happening and increasing the odds of us getting of that situation in one piece.
Photographing colorful landscapes in Black & White
Today’s video is from Canyonlands National Park, in Utah. A landscape that is mostly about the colors: the red rocks, the green vegetation, the sunrises and sunsets… how do we photograph all of that in black and white?
As I explore the park, I share some tips and ideas to create good monochrome images in places where color is king.
Update: second part of this mini series is now available. I share a few more tips and ideas, this time from Arches National Park.
Photography as a lifestyle, from Zion National Park
in journal
I breathe photography, it’s my life. I always have a camera with me, ready to create something at any moment. If photography were to be done only from beautiful and stunning places, I wouldn’t be doing it. I believe photography should be done anywhere, at all times. There’s an image to be made everywhere.
In this video from beautiful Zion, I talk about this approach to photography.
