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.
It’s not always about the photography
As much as I’d love every photography trip I take to be productive……
Laguna Sentinels
A rare winter storm brought a magical winter wonderland to San Diego’s local mountains, of course I had to take advantage of the conditions and had a snowy adventure day.
I’m riding my bike from Canada to Mexico!
I’m finally doing it, I’m going to ride my bike over 3,000 miles from Canada to Mexico. Follow along and join me as I bikepack my way down the Continental Divide along the world’s longest unpaved trail, the Great Divide Mountain Bike Route.
Finding My Voice
Perform a Google search on the secret to becoming a successful artist and you’ll get a zillion results on the importance of finding your own voice/vision/niche. Whether it’s finding a topic that’s interesting to an artist or something that will set them apart from the crowd, every artist needs to find what makes them tick and standout amongst the crowd. I’m finally finding my voice as an artist, I still have a ways to go but I’m on the right path.
Photography With Intention
Photography starts with a vision but how viewers see images vary. A large fine art print hanging on a wall is very different than viewing images on cell phone screens.
