I shot this wonderful waterscape a couple weeks ago. I had never seen such a beautiful Milky Way in this area, I knew I had to take my camera out. The moon was the only light available and it produced an amazing effect of the lake.

One of the crevasses at Cape Arago on the Oregon Coast, USA. Super cool area to watch the tide and waves. Can be super dangerous as well. The waves rush into these large cracks and slam into the shallow caverns with a resounding crash and percussion. Sneaker waves can make where you stand under water in seconds.

Angel's landing is one of Zion National Park's most famous hikes. This photo was taken off-trail and you can see in the bottom right corner, the path leading to the Virgin River valley below. Down center is the road where the bus shuttle drives. It is only authorized vehicle in the park past its lodge. It is an amazing park to visit, only a two-hour drive from Las Vegas, Nevada.
