Devil’s Garden — Utah
Part of the Devil’s Garden district in Arches National Park, these sandstone rock fins stand like monuments in the desert landscape. Yes, there is a “normal” photo of this landscape somewhere in my files but the abstract one captured me instantaneously. I looked at the back of the camera and knew I wanted to offer this one as a print.

Dead Tree — Georgia
This old dead tree stands alone in an open field in Thomas County, Georgia. Located only a few miles from the Florida state line, this is tree is about as far south in South Georgia as you can get. I’m not sure what kind of tree it was, how long it has been dead or how it died. I do know that even in death it is still a beautiful sight. I could not have asked for a better sunset to capture this moment.

Hawk’s Next — West Virginia
The incredible view of the New River from Hawk’s Nest has drawn me back year after year. Hawk’s Nest, or Lovers’ Leap as some call it, has a storied history. Native American people groups were aware of the viewpoint long before European settlers entered the region. Only a few miles downriver there are ancient stone pile walls crisscrossing a mountainside. It is unknown who or when these stone walls were constructed. In the 1930s the site became infamous for the Hawks Nest Tunnel Disaster. During the construction of a 3-mile long tunnel, toxic silica dust filled the tunnel. Within only a few years hundreds of mostly poor workers had died of silicosis. Nonetheless, Hawk’s Nest is a beautiful and historic site to visit.

Worlds Apart — Utah
An abstract landscape captured near the Devil’s Garden area of Arches National Park. These two monolithic sandstone features caught my eye right away. I decided to experiment a little and came away with this otherworldly, in-camera photograph. No editing was applied to create the visual effects of this image.

Valley of Fire — Nevada
The arid, rocky terrain of the Valley of Fire - Located in Southern Nevada, roughly an hour from Las Vegas, this area is full of geological wonders but I was drawn to this view and how the shadows played on the scenery. The valley is part of the Mojave Desert and is well known for its hot, dry weather. The day this photograph was made was no exception to those norms as the temperature rose to 100° before the sun lowered itself on the horizon.

Boots in the Dunes — Colorado
I stared off into the distance towards the 750 foot tall sand dunes before me and pondered their existence. Light sand from the nearby Sangre de Cristo Mountains and dark, volcanic sand from the distant San Juan Mountains mix together at this point. Together they create the tallest sand dunes in North America at Great Sand Dunes National Park. I knew it would be quite the trek but the memories would be worth it. The sand absorbed every step as I climbed up the spine of the first dune. I looked back and the tree line from where I had emerged was so far away. Strong winds picked up the fine particles of sand and threw them into my eyes. It stung and caused tears to form in my eyes but it was all incredibly worth the memories of that view.

Gitche Gumee - Michigan
Large rock formation along the Pictured Rocks National Shoreline in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Located between the towns of Munising and Grand Marais, the Pictured Rocks rise from Lake Superior to a height of 200 feet in some places. The colorful streaks are formed by the minerals within the rocks leaching out over time. Groundwater evaporates, leaving streaks of red from iron, black and white from manganese, yellow from limonite and pinks and greens from copper. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow’s “Hiawatha” poem references the lake as “the shining Big-Sea-Water”.

West Texas - Texas
Walking through a maze of lechuguilla, sotol, ocotillo, yucca and cacti in West Texas. The Franklin Mountains tower over the north side of El Paso, Texas. Although a small range with a length of roughly 25 miles, these mountains top out at an elevation of 7,200 feet above sea level. The southern tip of the mountain range offers a dramatic view of the Chihuahuan Desert as well as the cities of El Paso, Texas and Juarez, Mexico.

Santa Elena Canyon - Texas & Mexico Border
The Rio Grande flows through the Santa Elena Canyon at Big Bend National Park. In this photo, the cliffs to the left are in the Mexican state of Chihuahua while the cliffs on the right are in the United States. The river was shallow enough to walk across the borderline. This part of Texas is a mystery to many but well worth the lonesome drive for a visit.

Orange Cliffs — Utah
Taken near the Orange Cliffs Viewpoint in Canyonlands National Park, these sandstone cliffs were an impressive sight at sunset. Visiting places like this always conjures up the sentiment of being present even in the midst of a fleeting moment. These Orange Cliffs have been here for millions of years. I took a single day out of my life to catch a beautiful sunset at the canyon’s rim. Thankful to have experienced this special place.
