One of the most beautiful yet arduous places to get to in Italy. A 4,000 ft hike and climb to get here. A landscape like no other!

The first morning of our Dolomites trip took an unexpected turn.

I accidentally dropped my camera nearly 20 feet off a mountain ledge toward a 1,000-foot drop. Somehow, it landed perfectly on a tiny ledge only a few feet wide.

After carefully climbing down and back up the mountainside, I was able to recover it. My $1,000 24–70mm lens was destroyed, but somehow the camera body still worked.

With only my wide-angle and telephoto lenses left for the rest of the trip, I headed back out to shoot. These are some of the images I captured that very same morning in the incredible Italian Dolomites.

Sometimes the unexpected becomes part of the adventure.

Spent the night in a mountain hut and got to hike through rolling hills and huge rock spires in the Swiss Alps in the Appenzell region. Awesome views and perspective that make you feel incredibly small.

Switzerland truly is maybe one of the most wonderful and beautiful places in the world. The wifey and I did this for our 10 year anniversary trip and it was awesome! We felt like we were in the Lord of the Rings on almost every trail. This was the hike we made up to the summit of Augstmatthorn.

More bear photos from Cades Cove. Spending time photographing bear this year more than I ever have and what an awesome experience it is.

Outer Banks gave us a wild day, 36 mph northeast winds shut down our fishing charter after the captain warned of 10 ft waves. Learned the saying, “Winds from the east are a beast, west is the best.” That same day, a house on Hatteras Island near us was washed into the ocean as the shoreline shifted. These were taken the day before the wind storm.
“The Calm Before the Storm.”
