Sunrise, the Blue Ridge Mountains
Sunrise, the Blue Ridge MountainsAn early morning shot in the Blue Ridge Mountains. I was impressed by the soft blue colors which transitioned to a warm morning sky. It gave the opportunity to explore luminosity and contrast.
Towers of Paine II
Towers of Paine IIThis is a shot of the famous Chilean Mountains. This was taken at sunset which is about 9PM at the time of year I was there. It was a fairly challenging shot because of the contrast and the heavy haze. I revisited this shot and decided to express it as black and white.
Shades of the Great Smokies
Shades of the Great SmokiesThis is an early morning shot in the Great Smoky Mountains. I am intrigued by these mountains as they transition off into the distance. I decided to express the image in Black & White to emphasize luminosity and contrast in the image that creates a natural abstract.

Jagged Mountains, the Patagonia
Jagged Mountains, the PatagoniaThis is a shot that made while in the Patagonia in 2016. I went back to re-look at this image. What interested me were the shapes and the lighting. Post processing allowed me to embellish the luminosity and contrast as compositional elements as a transition through the image from foreground to background.
Rocks and Rapids, Blue Ridge Mountains
Rocks and Rapids, Blue Ridge MountainsA midday shot in the Blue Ridge Mountains of a stream under the shade. I selected a shutter speed that would provide the rush of the rapids and still maintain a measure of texture. The rock in the upper left offered an anchor and helped to provide depth.

Rocks & Rapids, the Blue Ridge
Rocks & Rapids, the Blue RidgeI find it stimulating to challenge myself to “throw away” the rules of composition and just create an image from one I notice. This one works with with the static and dynamic elements of moving water and rocks along with color to create an auditory visionary experience (yes, you should probably reread that).
