Had Elowah Falls all to myself for about an hour on this particular morning, with a lot of opportunities to scout the infinite angles available at the site. A lot of spray from the falls meant I could not get a super sharp/clear version with the walking bridge in frame, but moving further back presented some amazing compositions. This shot was taken atop one of the large boulders in the river below the falls, and was definitely tricky to get to during the spring melt. Nevertheless, it was a beautiful location!

Digging through some old files from my trip to Antelope Canyon last August, and came across this. If you haven’t visited these Canyons before, the crowds are insane, and while a designated photo tour gets you an element of crowd control, looking up is another way to get some amazing shapes and textures without people. This particular shot was taken in between the “official” shoots and really struck me for its swirling/textured sandstone and monochrome colour. Antelope Canyon, AZ
A quick roadside stop in between sunrise and my first hike, I threw the car into the parking lot of Latourell Falls and quickly ran up to the viewpoint to capture this image. Some of the best images are the ones that aren't planned and you need to seize the opportunity and react quickly to get the shots you want. This was one of those cases where minimal effort (and a little luck) paid off! Columbia River Gorge, OR
