Just 3–4 weeks ago, the ground was covered in snow and gas prices were climbing. But summer is short, and photography road trips—even short ones—are a great way to get out, explore, and get creative.

With a fresh oil change, I packed the car with camera gear and hit the road.

Have a great summer.

NORTHERN GLOW

DELAYED SPRING ALONG THE NORTH SHORE OF LAKE SUPERIOR

Captured mid-morning overlooking Wauswaugoning Bay in Grand Portage, Minnesota, this anamorphic photograph captures a landscape shaped by fog and steady mist, with snow still lingering across the ground in a delayed spring. Trees recede in soft layers as the view dissolves into haze.

As a fine art print, the image focuses on mood and simplicity. Muted tones and minimal detail create a calm, contemplative presence that encourages slow viewing and brings a sense of stillness into a space.

The new site is in its final tweaking stage. If you have a moment to explore, take a look—and feel free to message me if anything seems off, like a broken link or an image not loading.

My goal is to create an enjoyable, immersive space for authentic landscape photography—both conceptual and true-to-life. Whether you’re browsing for prints or simply taking in the images, I hope you enjoy your time on the site.

It’s best experienced on a desktop, though it works on mobile as well.

I was excited to test the Canon EF 400mm f/5.6L USM—a telephoto lens with real history.

Released in 1993 and discontinued in 2021 as Canon shifted to RF mirrorless, it’s a lightweight, sharp-focus classic with two trade-offs: no image stabilization and a modest f/5.6 aperture.

This winter scene was captured handheld with a Canon 5Ds, no stabilization, no filters.

It's that special time of year—wishing everyone joy, warmth, and the very best as we welcome the new year!

The photograph was created with no AI assistance. It was shot in my kitchen, which I converted into a makeshift tabletop studio for the occasion.

As for the poem, it was generated by AI.

I asked it to craft lyrics about a cold, wintry Christmas paired with the magic of music.

But honestly, I don’t think human writers have anything to worry about just yet!

See you in 2026!

If you were in Thunder Bay a couple of days ago, looked up around 19:38hrs and were facing south-west, this is what you would've seen.

Take a closer look. That's not sky in the background. That is MOUNTAIN. Swipe to see the full photograph. The beauty of shooting in high resolution. And, B/W.

Captured standing in the middle of the Alaska Highway in Yukon Territory, in beautiful Canada, eh. Oh yeah, baby 😊!

Vast Canadian Rockies mountain range under a soft haze. Shot from 30,000 ft, while hanging off the plane's wing. Kidding. But it was 30,000 ft.
