Glacier National Park never ceases to amaze even the most seasoned landscape photographers. The light show put on my Mother Nature on this particular morning was nothing short of breathtaking. The beauty of the rugged landscape here is so immense I felt compelled to take a series of panoramic photos. This particular panoramic was made from (3) three Canon 1Ds Mark III photos using a 24mm TS lens. While taking this ph
There are so many wonderful things to say about Glacier National Park it’s hard to know where to start. One of my favorite locations to explore is the Many Glaciers area. Swiftcurrent Lake provides an incredibly majestic view of Mount Grinnell at sunrise and will hold you in awe all day long. On this particular morning Mother Nature put on an amazing show. A nearly full moon was setting at sunrise and as the mo
This photo could sum up the past couple of weeks nicely. Life has been coming at me fast and furious as of late. Taxes, a variety of projects and recently my dog Moe (dressed as Batdog) having some unexplained seizures. All is well with Moe fortunately, but I’m keeping an eye on him. Other than being severely sleep deprived staying up with him late at night… we’re both faring well. The same could be
It’s been a great year for photography, perhaps even better than last year, and as 2008 nears its end I thought it would be fun to select my favorite photos from the year. I had a tough time narrowing things down so here they are… Honorable Mentions: Honorable Mention #5: Pike Place Market One thing I love about taking travel photos is the constant challenge to find a new perspective. While I got odd stares from pass

Gigapixel panoramic photos and the Yosemite Extreme Panoramic Imaging Project 2008 are the focus in this interview with Eric Hanson, CEO of xRez studio.

This is one of the few large panoramic photos I took while out at The Wave in Arizona. As some might recall I covered elements of my time at this location in my aptly titled EXIF and Beyond podcast Landscape Photography: The Wave. This particular photo is a 22 image vertical image stitch with a net resolution equivalent to 300+ megapixels. Those that were with me when I took this panoramic thought I was a little nu
Late last month when out in Utah meeting up with fellow photographer Guy Tal we photographed sunrise at Factory Butte near Caineville, Utah. The sunrise was incredibly beautiful and accentuated by a nearly full moon setting in the distance. The landscape being so vast I felt compelled to photograph the scene in a panoramic format. The resulting panoramic was made from 13 vertical photographs netting an equivalent res
One of the more exhillerating aspects of being in the field is when you’re traveling at just the right pace to stay ahead of an approaching storm. Such was the case as I traveled through Utah and Wyoming last week. By the time I arrived at the Grand Teton National Park the storm that was on my tail had started to roll through. Once I settled on a location to photograph the Tetons I was able to enjoy the show. I
