I learned on this trip that all these super long, seemingly impossible to pronounce Icelandic words are actually quite literal. They are small words put together into longer ones, and the towns themselves are just words. For example, Vik literally means the bay or harbor, which is exactly where this little beautiful place is.
.
The sun couldnāt quite push through these clouds for some color but.. blue hour is also one of my favorite times to shoot! As per typical Iceland weather, we were treated to some crazy winds while standing here. After the first 10 minutes, we learned you can actually HEAR the wind approaching cause it was so strong. Even with a few seconds of time to mentally and physically prepare for the incoming blast of freezing Atlantic air, I am not exaggerating when I say the wind literally blew me off my feet š¬
.
Hoping everyone is staying well and healthy!

This was the only sunrise/sunset with good colors we caught in Iceland and Iām thankful we even caught one. I already knew where I wanted to shoot this morning so we hurried here, but the color started coming out FAST. The clouds were already starting to light up when we arrived so there was barely any time to set up or look for a comp. I didnāt even put on my filter on and just started shooting. I think smoother waves wouldāve been nice, but I do quite like seeing the movement of the waves here too
.
It was so frantic that at one point I was clicking shutters on my main camera set to a tripod (this photo), shooting handheld with my second body and telephoto, while also trying to record videos on my iPhone š
.
The black sand beaches all over Iceland is definitely one of its highlights. I especially love it on the winter with some snow, giving it great contrast. Iām always amazed at how sea stacks form and just stand there almost awkwardly in the ocean, but theyāre beautiful and certainly make for great objects to photograph

Itās seriously like waterfalls heaven over there, with every waterfall being different and unique. I looove that moment when you see a new waterfall for the first time. Sometimes you catch glimpses of it as you hike closer and closer, but this one took me off guard with how much taller it was than I expected
.
You canāt see the full falls here due to the crop, but it was such a beauty that I just had to take a selfie with it. Usually just one person need to model but pretty sure on this one and I all took turns to get our own selfies in haha

I usually like to take pictures of grand landscapes, places that immediately makes you go wow. But I also really liked these little cacti and I found, and it just happened to aligned really well with the Milk that night. There are endless compositions here in the Alabama Hills and I feel like nothing can look bad with the Milky Way as the backdrop
.
For those of you who have never seen the Milky Way core with your own eyes, I hope you set aside a weekend next year to go see it. Itās crazy how many stars you can see in the night sky once you get somewhere dark and far away from city lights

Thereās so much to shoot here. I was debating between a few locations to shoot sunset at and this big ārockā in the ocean with trees growing on top really caught my attention. I love seeing the waves crash on the rock too, showing the unique formation of the rock where it meets the ocean. Not sure if Iāve just got luck on my side, but Iāve hit great conditions both times Iāve visited Samuel Boardman. I always hear about how wet or foggy this part of the coast can get, yet last year we had clear skies for Milky Way AND saw bioluminescence in the ocean..
I didnāt plan much ahead of time in terms of photography for this trip. Sometimes planning too much puts a lot of added pressure and stress especially when it doesnāt work out, so it was nice to just get out and shoot whatever was around. Life gets hard sometimes, and thatās ok - just remember to to make time to do whatever it is that makes you happy!.

Iāll always be thankful to that stranger who helped me get my car out. I had hiked out 45 minutes in the dark when I saw his car, and I had to tap his windows to get his attention. Thank you for being friendly and willing to help. I almost gave up and left the area after getting the car unstuck, but after all this trouble I just had to get the shot I came for. After about 1.5 hours of sleep in the car, I stood in a windstorm to capture these unique geological features under a rising Milky Way. Thereās something about these landscapes that makes it feel out of this world, and having the Milky Way rise behind it was perfect.
.
The effort-to-reward ratio was extremely high for this shot, which is why this photo is just that bit more special for me than my others. It really is a sweet area with tons of compositions available and I definitely plan to be back more prepared next time š

The condensation from the ground seemed to be evaporating, very rapidly too, creating this pretty cool scene all over the landscape. I donāt actually know the couple in the shot. They just happened to be walking towards me with one of the buttes directly behind them and I quite liked the scale. Monument Valley is pretty special in any condition, and next time I hope to catch a lightning here š¤š¼
.
Recently I had my vehicle broken into. The same vehicle I drove from Canada down to the southwest on a 4 week long road trip. It made me think about how much I missed road trips, where the car was both my transportation, kitchen and home. is currently giving away a bunch of sweet gear valued over $2500 for 2 lucky winners, many of which I wish I had on my road trips.

Contest link is in the bio. If you win, feel free to share some of that new camping swag with me š¬

What I find special about waterfalls is how unique each one is. Everything from the way the water drops, to the landscapes surrounding the waterfall, no two falls are the same. Each one is formed and continue to be shaped by so many factors that make them truly one of a kind. Looking forward to exploring more waterfalls this summer!
.
Happy waterfall Wednesday!

I usually like to plan my shots but this was not one of them. Found this shot buried somewhere in my Death Valley photos when it caught my eye as I went through those photos again. Makes me wonder what other cool photos Iāve missed.. Sometimes you never know what youāll find when you go through old photos again! Iām also glad I kept snapping away even as I was walking out of the dunes that day.
.
Part of me really regret leaving before the wind storm. I can only imagine the photos I wouldāve gotten on the dunes with some epic weather (and the sunset that day was š„). On the other hand, Iām also glad I didnāt get blasted by sand and my gear isnāt filled with tiny pieces of sand:)

I had this shot in mind for quite some time, but as always I was concerned with the weather and the crowds here. Donāt be fooled when *most* tourists leave after sunset here. There are many photographers that stay behind with the same goal of capturing the Milky Way. Different ideas for composition and those who want to light the arch can lead to arguments and Iāve heard many of those stories.
.
I waited until a good week after the new moon to shoot this in hopes of less photographers. It was basically the last day of the month where itād be dark enough and have the alignment, with only 30 minutes between the moon setting and astronomical twilight. (Thanks for the ability to plan this way ahead of time)There were only 3 other photographers shooting from a distance when and I arrived around 3:30am. For this shot, we had to be very close (this was 16mm) and thankfully we were able to convince them to come join us and shoot at this spot instead.
.
As I left my camera on timer, I laid on the rocks and admired this amazing sight. Watching the galactic core perfectly glide through the iconic Delicate Arch was mesmerizing, humbling, and therapeutic all at once. Definitely a night I wonāt forget.
