Not long before sunset at Monument Valley (AZ) the sun came out and opened this atonishing view.

I took this picture in Yellowstone National Park, at around 6am. The mist had subsided partially as the Sun came up but was reluctant to leave, lingering on the surface.

Located on Tanjung Aru, Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, Borneo, Malaysia, Shangri-La Tanjung Aru Resort is a man-made beach resort that gives a very great view of sunsets every single day. Shot on the rocky side of the small private beach provided by the resort over-viewing the Sunset Bar in the vicinity.

Last month I joined my brother and my 70 year old mother for a fishing trip in Alaska. I went focused on being a photographer, and ended up being focused on being a fisherman. I did manage to get some shots off, mostly with my Phantom 4 Pro. Its so exciting to get a perspective that I can't see in front of me. This was taken at Harlequin Lake.

An other shot of Zion National Park, this time from the top, and end of Angel's Landing trail. An easy hike until you reach the last half mile and have to hang on to chains to make your way along the top ridge. Obviously, worth the risks.

A 3-light-year-long pillar, bathed in the glow of light from hot, massive stars to the top of the image. Scorching radiation and fast winds (streams of charged particles) from these stars are sculpting the pillar and causing new stars to form within it. Streamers of gas and dust can be seen flowing off the top of the structure.

Nestled inside this dense structure are fledgling stars. They cannot be seen in this image because they are hidden by a wall of gas and dust. Although the stars themselves are invisible, one of them is providing evidence of its existence. Thin puffs of material can be seen traveling to the left and to the right of a dark notch in the center of the pillar. The matter is part of a jet produced by a young star. Farther away, on the left, the jet is visible as a grouping of small, wispy clouds. A few small clouds are visible at a similar distance on the right side of the jet. Astronomers estimate that the jet is moving at speeds of up to 850,000 miles an hour. The jet's total length is about 10 light-years.

Composed of gas and dust, the pillar resides in a tempestuous stellar nursery called the Carina Nebula, located 7,500 light-years away in the southern constellation Carina.
