I'm treating this entire post-Thanksgiving weekend as a meditation on stillness (i.e., hiding from people). What are you working on that requires deep, quiet concentration? 🧘 #Phography #Creativity #Mindfulness

Hey it is Thanksgiving after all: I'm thankful for fog that rolls in and makes everything look dramatic and brooding. Can't wait to soak up the ultimate version in Scotland soon. What is the one natural element you are grateful for right now? 🙏 #Photography #LandscapePhotography

A little slice of beautiful Vernal Falls in #Yosemite 🩵 I wanted to get tighter framing on the falls to capture more of those wonderful details you could just stare at for hours.

Which photography genre do you secretly wish you were a master of? I crave the glamour and intimacy of portraiture, and have certainly dabbled in it, but lately the mountains call. ⛰️ #Photography #LandcapePhotography

If your editing software suddenly gained consciousness, what snarky comment would it make about your last session? My Photoshop is ruthless. 🔪 #PostProcessing #Photography #Photoshop

Can we talk about how the best light is the light you didn't plan for? Do others find serendipity is the universe's ultimate plot twist for photographers? 🌌 #HappyAccidents #Photography

What's the best way to quiet the inner voice that whispers, "This has all been photographed before"? I need a strong banishment spell. 🤫 #PhotographerMindset #Photography

I only call it 'cropping' when I'm feeling charitable. Usually, it's just correcting my mortal compositional sins. Who else relates? 💀 #Composition #PhotographyStruggles

I've been playing with these portals lately, which has been a fun experiment in looking at landscapes with a potential framing or negative space in mind. Also, I'm just a sucker for a lone tree on a hillside, let's face it 🌲

#photographers where are we shooting this winter and what gear are you bringing to handle the weather? I'm heading to Sequoia National Park just before Christmas hoping to capture snowy trees! My big, exciting gear purchase: traction devices for my hiking boots.

All in the details 🔍 a little close up of Lower Yosemite Falls as we strolled the valley earlier this year. Staying at Yosemite Valley Lodge was a fascinating chance to be in the middle of it all, including a few minutes' stroll from this lovely view.
