A shot out the window while driving over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, California. It seemed to disappear into the fog.

Converted to black and white and touched up a bit in Adobe Photoshop.

This was a shot looking up at the redwoods on the Roaring Camp Railroad, thus the smoke in the air. The steam from the engine made the sunlight piercing through the trees come to life. Felton, California

After a party while waiting for the first train to go back home I was all alone on this deserted trainstation in 's-Hertogenbosch, the Netherlands. To kill time, I decided to take a picture. Hope you like the result!

While the entire ski resort was overcast and had to deal with a snow storm I decided to try my luck higher up the mountain. The clouds suddenly disappeared and all I could think about was capturing the moment. The contrast between the storm under the clouds with the Sun shining above made this an even more mesmerizing moment.

A great photo spot at Natural Bridges State Park outside of Santa Cruz, California. I used my Nikon D3100, Sigma 10-20mm, lens, some cheap GND filters and a tripod. I had to time my photo within the sets so the tripod didn't get knocked over.

Taken in Half Moon Bay, California. I used a series of cheap ND and Graduated ND filters which gave the scene a magenta hue. After correcting the colors in Photoshop, I realized I liked it better the way it was.

Shot for a student project/experiment at the University of Saskatchewan. This image is from the series "Failing the Rorschach Test". It involved the study of light and chiaroscuro within photography, and the psychological reactions from an audience. The image was created with white pigment in a small aquarium, using studio lighting for dramatic effect.
