Mt. Etna

Walking on the lava fields of a volcano is like being on another world. It's fascinating seeing all the funnels from the various eruptions and the paths of lava cut through the fields of green grass and trees.

Dubrovnik, Croatia

Dubrovnik has to be one of the most photogenic cities I've ever visited - especially on a beautiful day like this one.

Taken through a tower window from atop the old city walls.

Christmas Wishes
This was handheld, so I couldn't get the long exposure that a tripod would allow, but the colors on the castle came out great and the smoke and fireworks make a nice frame.

Winter Sunrise

There was this wild colored glow outside our window this morning, so I ran out with the camera and tripod to try to capture it before it disappeared. I much prefer this to the gloomy rainy weather we've been having lately. #Austin

Christmas Eve, Texas Panhandle

During the drive back to my parents' ranch house after Christmas Eve Eucharist, the sky began to turn these amazing colors. Like a crazy man, I pulled over in the 20 degree cold and set up my tripod to capture this shot.
