Read MoreGreenland is the world's largest island and an autonomous Danish dependent territory with limited self-government and its own parliament. The massive island lies between the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans. Much of its land surface is covered in ice. Most of its small population lives along the ice-free, fjord-lined coast, particularly in the southwest. Its northerly position, largely above the Arctic Circle, results in natural phenomena such as summer’s midnight sun and winter’s Northern Lights.
Read MoreHow do you photograph polar bears successfully? The bright white tones of the arctic present challenges, especially this time of year when the sun never sets. Luckily for us, the weather forecast is for party cloudy skies with daily average temperatures at, or just below, freezing – these are perfect conditions as far as I’m concerned.
Read MoreFor me, being on safari is something that stirs my soul and warms my heart, something I will never grow tired of. I am especially honored to be among those talented photographers listed in the top 100 best Wildlife Photography Blogs on the planet. I've included some of my favorite wildlife photos.
Read MoreWhile flying doors off with The Helicopter Line, based from Mount Cook, I had the pilot orbit around the outlet of the Tasman River before it dumps into Tasman Lake. We did a series of orbits, dropping 500 feet each rotation. This varied altitude approach presented us with numerous opportunities to photograph the river at different angles as the sun began to hit the river bed. I love photographing these rivers and I cant wait to return next year.
Read MoreEvening shot of the last remaining authentic Cormorant Fishermen as they pull their rafts onto a small shoal on the Li River. This image works for me because of all of the leading line and angels that are present. The haze and orange glow was a wonderful treat just as the sun retreated behind the clouds. Other than slight contrast change and final sharpening, there was very little that was done to this image – just about straight out of the camera as you can get. I owe that to the great low light capturing capabilities and the true color generated by the sensor of the Hasselblad.
Read MoreWhat a killer of a day here in Iceland. The sun broke for us at Aldeyjarfoss, then a fast run over to Godafoss, then a quick pizza stop and it was off the photograph the Northern Lights.What started off as a small show, soon turned into a huge display of multicolored lights dancing across the sky in wave-like forms. I have photographed the lights before but never have I been faced with having to increase my shutter speed to stop the action.
Read MoreGood morning from the streets of Italy. I was up very early and after the sunrise busted, I caught this shop keeper opening his shop before others were up and moving. He was as interested in me as I was him which gave me a chance to catch him in a moment of hesitation as he looked into the camera.
Read MoreAfter staying in for an hour or two at breakfast, we decided to venture out into the rain in hopes of some clearing. Luck was again on our side and we had only a very slight drizzle once we arrived at our location. With everyone prepared for the weather and high tide on our side, we hit the bay next to Kirkjufell for some reflection work.
Read MoreA year in the making, and with thanks to the efforts of Nicky at Eyes on Africa, I have built a nearly perfect photography adventure to photograph the seldom visited tribes of the Omo Valley. An adventure totally focused on capturing these tribes and limited to only four clients. Bring back images that are seldom seen of tribes that may soon be lost forever.
