My Thoughts, Ramblings and Ideas
Welcome to the journal — not quite a blog, not quite a notebook. Just a quiet space where I can put words to the images I create and share stories from the road. Sometimes it's a reflection, sometimes a glimpse behind the scenes, and sometimes it's just the thoughts that surface after a long hike, a quiet camp, or time spent off the beaten path.
Think of it as a place to wander — through landscapes, ideas, and whatever else the journey stirs up.
Winter’s Gateway
A soft snowfall, two quiet trees, and a final frame that almost didn’t happen. Winter’s Gateway captures the fleeting beauty of winter in San Diego’s Mount Laguna and the quiet reward of going just a little further.
Stillness at Fort Rosecrans
Created on a foggy afternoon at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery, this black and white photograph captures a quiet moment of stillness and reflection. A solitary tree stands centered among fading headstones, offering a subtle but powerful invitation to pause.
Snow Day in San Diego
A heavy winter storm brought fresh snow to Mount Laguna, offering conditions most people would avoid—but for me, it provided a perfect day of clarity and creativity, embodied in this solitary Jeffrey Pine.
