  • This is one of many amazing views you'll see when driving Going to the Sun Road in Glacier National Park.. If you look closely under the glacier you can see Bird Woman Falls which drops 560 feet. It has a much higher flow in the spring and is a lot harder to see in the fall.

  • From this view you can see the scar left in the mountain from Going to the Sun Road. The views from this road were incredible, especially late in the day as the sun got lower.
    A Mountain Cut
  • It was tough deciding where to shoot the sunset this evening in Glacier National Park. I ended up at Wild Goose Island Overlook, along with dozens of other photographers.

    Going to the Sun Road
  • There aren't very many waterfalls in the world that allow you to walk behind them and watch the sunset. But you can do just that at Seljalandsfoss on the southern coast of Iceland (foss is Icelandic for waterfall). This is only possible during the late summer and early fall, when the sun lines up and transform the curtain of water into liquid gold. A rain jacket or poncho is essential if you want to get behind the waterfall without getting soaked. The force of the water falling 200 feet and hitting the pool below almost seemed to create it's own wind, with the spray going everywhere. It only took a few seconds before my lens was covered with water droplets. To get this shot I huddled over my camera in a corner, waiting for just the right moment when the sun popped out and no one was walking in front of the falls. This is a popular tour bus stop along Iceland's Ring Road, so it can get very crowded at times.
    Liquid Gold
  • On the empty Wyoming prairie near the town of Bill, I watched this cell slowly approach. It went through cycles, weakening and strengthening before sunlight emerged through the rain and hail. Downdraft winds blew precipitation outward near the ground to form a rain foot. With everything bathed in a golden glow, the sky became a painting. It was an unusual perspective, being able to see the entire updraft towering 9 miles high from so close. Only my widest lens would do. Keeping up with the storm was no longer an option as there were no viable roads headed east. But I was content to just sit there and watch it go.
