The east side of Lake Tahoe looking south towards Bonsai Rock. The water was pretty rough so I used a 1/4 second exposure to capture the flow over a nearby rock. The emerald colors in this lake are amazing.

Rock island is called "ghost ship".

The Painted Hills in Eastern Oregon, USA. The weather was perfect for viewing the painted hills. This photo was taken in the evening as we arrived late. Had to camp next to the road in the middle of nowhere.

Adobe Photoshop Elements was used to slightly increase clarity and vibrance but this is what it really looks like here.

Morning at the Tetons in Wyoming, USA. I hiked down a closed road to this iconic spot to catch the morning sun on the mountains and the reflection in the beaver ponds.

I used a circular polarizer to try and cut through into this pool with its many green sea anemones during sunset. Had to jump out of the way of the wave you see coming in. I like how the clouds reflected in the pool.

Just before sun drops below western horizon in Oregon. Orcas were cruising up and down in front of the rock ledge. Very cool evening.
