January 11, 2013 - This was my first visit to Palouse Falls in the winter. I must say, It was quite the experience. The surrounding area was completely frozen as you can see in parts of this shot. Made for some nice contrast to the scene.

Alder Lake
August 31, 2014 - I was going to go for a hike today but when I woke up and saw the thick clouds, I was sure that it was going to rain. When it finally started to get a little better in the afternoon I decided to head out for a little bit. I settled on Alder Lake since it is fairly close to home. Overall it was a rather boring Sunday but I guess that is the way it goes sometimes.

Rainier Sunset
September 1, 2014 - As I was getting home from work, I had the feeling that something great was going to happen tonight so I quickly changed clothes and headed out to a spot close to home that I had not photographed before. I could not find the perfect composition but did manage to capture this panorama before I left. Unfortunately I think that I chose the wrong location because the sky blew up where the sun was setting. Next time!!!

Clover Island
August 12, 2014 - Another photo as you enter Clover Island. It is not very often that I find myself in town with some clouds in the sky. I loved the drama of the scene that night.

Chambers Bay Sunset
May 1, 2014 - This was photo I made from Chambers Bay at sunset. This is probably one of the most beautiful locations close to my house that I had never discovered until this day. This golf course is going to be the site of the 2015 US Open.

Rattlesnake Ridge
August 24, 2014 - Last night I took to social media to get some suggestions on a place to spend my day off. My friend from school recommended that I venture out to Rattlesnake Ridge. Since it was not a hike I had ever done before I was certain that this would be my pick for the day. I packed my gear and started the drive. It was turning out to be a very nice day so I was pretty excited. All the reviews said that this was an awesome place but to be prepared to fight the crowds of people if it was a weekend. I must have passed several hundred people and about 100 dogs on the trail. Despite all the people it was still pretty amazing. I just had to have a little more patience. All in all it was a great suggestion and a wonderful day. Looking forward to doing it again on a weekday.

Early Morning Mist
May 5, 2011 - An early morning photo I made from Alder Lake. I took this quite a while ago but never got around to posting this one. I really like the mystery beyond the fog.

Midnight Highway
This was a photo I made a couple nights away late at night along the side of the road on my way to Spokane. One of the first time I have ever shot this late and not been in the city. What caught my attention was the light flairs on the windmills and I immediately turned around and had to find a place to shoot from.

Deception Pass
August 30, 2012 - Made my way out to deception pass in the early morning hours before the sun came up. Walked down the trail to the beach and captured this nice moment. This is a pretty awesome place to visit if you ever get the chance.
