Shawn and Tyler trying to hear their music on the back of a ferry.

After an afternoon of climbing in the heat of the desert, we are packing up to head back to camp. This was shot right on the rim of the Owen's River Gorge, which is owned by Los Angeles; the tower takes some electricity from the damn to Southern California homes.

Tuolumne Meadows classic scene. Took this as we were passing through towards Bishop, CA.

Tom Ogasawara shredding his fingertips on a boulder problem right outside camp 4, Yosemite, CA.

Woke up at 2 am to take some night photos on Isle Royale, an island in the middle of lake superior. The light above the horizon is the aurora borealis.

Right after a huge rainstorm on Isle Royale, the sun was making so many rays everywhere because of the mist. This was one of the best spots for it.

Going Minimal.

Sunset HDR on Isle Royale, looking out over Lake Michigan.

Taken from the roof of my house. I love the colors, and the windows are reflecting the dusk sky.

Bridalveil Falls in Yosemite was roaring because of lots of snow melt. This photo was hard to take because I didn't bring a tripod, so this was shot, after many tries, handheld.

Bouldering trip to Castle Rock State Park, CA. This photo of Neil is probably one of my favorite climbing photos of late.

Ian Moore on a traverse, back lit in the morning, Castle Rock State Park, CA.

Recently learned of a family of Great Horned Owls living on the island in the middle of stow lake in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. I woke up early to catch the morning light, and of the many photos I took, this is, I think, the best.

I was recently in Philo, CA, in the Anderson Valley, and I found this small scene while snooping around my uncle's barn. Converted to black and white later; I really like the tones on the pepsi bottle.
