Sunset At 4 Peaks

Click the pic for a larger view Earlier this week the Phoenix area got hit with several days of heavy rain which lead to snow above 5,000 feet.  In a nutshell that meant road trip to the 4 Peaks area.  I was joined by my buddies Mike Olbinski and Bryan Snider for this sunset feast. Upon arrival I…

Passing Through

Click the pic for a bigger view Just a quick post today.  I captured this passing car just as the sun had set on the Arizona desert.  As the sky started turning colors I couldn’t help but stop and take it in.  I’ve said it countless times, but the sunsets we have here are second…

A Southwest Day

Click the pic for a bigger view Quick post today.  This was taken out at the Lost Dutchman State Park.  These are the kind of days I live for here in Arizona.  Cloudy skies with a touch of blue. I softened this image up a little to add some visual contrast to the harshness that…

Happy Trails

Click the pic for a bigger view Short post today as I’m headed out to assist Holly Baumann shoot the Children’s Action Alliance charity event. I’ve shot the Superstition Mountains several times in the past, but this one is pulled back considerably to show off that crazy sky we had that day.  This was taken…

Click the pic for a bigger view Quick post for this crappy Monday.  Both of my AZ teams (Diamondbacks & Cardinals) lost yesterday which makes today that much worse.  And on the college front my Jayhawks lost on Saturday, but that was expected.  Some days you just can’t win. I went through several names for…

Click the pick for a larger view Today’s image could of been called “Ode to Jesse”.  Fellow photog Jesse Pafundi has a nice style of including sunbursts in his shots when the timing is right.  Jessie always does a great job of catching those at the right time. For this shot I was wrapping up…

Click the pic for a larger view Storm chasing this year was a lot of fun for me.  Not only did I get to see some awesome spectacles of nature, I met some new photog friends (Scott Wood & Bryan Snider) as well. Granted it is not a cheap thing to do, driving upwards of…

Snow-stitious

Snow-stitious

Click the pic for a bigger view Today’s image was taken back earlier this spring.  We had just had a good rainfall in the valley which generally means a lite dusting of snow on the surrounding mountains.  The mountains you see here are known as the Superstitions and located out at the Lost Dutchman State…
