We walk through the woods, silence broken by the stir of a soft breeze, and appreciate the...quiet of autumn. #black&white #landscape #hike #autumn #classicmono #woods #mountains #utah #forest #fujfilm #contrast #blackphotographer

Back in Ogden on the last day of the summer farmer's market on 25th street and I stop for a cappuccino..the barista is in. #coffeeshop #barista #streetphotography #ogden #black&white #classicmono #wasatchroasting

My first trip to a place I've always been curious about and I think it was the right day for it...Seattle glory. #Seattle #Streetphotographer #black&white #city #skyline #classicmono #travelphotography

Antelope Island in northern Utah as a storm rolls into view with all the subtlety of a freight train. Raindrops blow into my face as I observe nature being nature...in the distance. #thunderstorm #classicmono #antelopeIsland #unta #black&white #weather #summerstorm #landscape #blackphotographer

Moments of light on my way to the Salt Lake City library..up the stairs. #classicmono #black&white #streetphotography #SaltLakeCityLibrary #contrast #Fujifilm #momentsoflight #architecture

I sweat my way up the stairs enroute to the Salt Lake City, the sun striking where it may and witness...half the light. #architecture #black&white #monoclassic #fujifilm #fujiXT5 #streetphotography #contract #saltlakecity #slclibrary #light#shadows #contrast

Somewhere in the desert, deep within the bowels of the earth I stumble across...the burning bush. #lowerantelopecanyon #landscapephotography #black&white #classicmono #fujfilm #moodyblack&white #light&shadows #blackphotographer

Morning moments in Death Valley..range of the dunes. #deathvalley #landscape #Mountains #classicmono #black&white #hike #travel #travelphotography

As dawn arrived the moon silently fell. #dawn #moonset #nature #Utah #AntelopeIsland #color #landscape

As I hiked the heart of the Albion Basin, I paused to take the moment in the mountains in as I was surrounded by..the flowers of summer. #wildflowers #scenic #classicmono #black&white #hike #summerviews #mountains #littlecottonwoods #utah #albionbasin #fuji

It is in these moments, when the sun is on your back and the wind is on your face. When I see you pause to take it all in and almost forget I'm even there. You absorb the grandeur of the High Uintas, a lake at your feet and the mountains, oh the mountains sing to you...a season of life. #hike

San Rafael swell and the...plains of ruin. #landscape #black&white #classicmono #SanRafaelSwell #Utah #ruins #desert #Canyons #fujifilm #xt5 #blackphotographer

Downtown Ogden Utah and as I prepared to depart, I noticed her constantly looking up to see if whomever she was waiting for had arrived...waiting. #fujifilm #black&white #streetphotography #Ogden #streetmoments #classicmono #xt5 #themoment

We arrived early, eager to defeat the heat and people. Soon we were immersed into the Timpanogas mountains on the first day of summer. And as I turned around I saw the first of the light arrive...nothing like the sun. #hiking #classicmono #landscape #blackphotographer #black&white #mountains

San Rafael Swell in southern Utah and a moment I felt I was existing in a mystical place where imagination and reality blended to produce...a storm over the temple. #thunderstorm #nature #desert #landscape #moody #blackphotographer #classicmono #black&white #fujifilm #travel

Utah sent a message loud and clear from Salt Lake City and Ogden yesterday with massive turnouts of folks screaming "No King!" loud and clear. #ICEPROTEST #NOKing #streetphotography #50-50 #blackphotographer #fujifilm #Utahprotest

The San Rafael swell contains many treasures. And it is all worth the hike through heat and bugs when you literally walk into a rainbow of colors and textures that could be the rising sun..the stone sky. #abstract #blackphotographer #fujifim #hike #landscape #textures #colors

If you are still on the sidelines wondering if all that talk about "Fascism" and "Authoritarianism" is just talk, you are Whistling Dixie" as they say from the neck of the woods where I was born. THIS.IS.IT. And what you do or not do will determine whether our tarnished democracy survives.

Southern Utah and the San Rafael Swell always live up to the "Big Brag"...the backcountry. #Black&white #landscape #Utah #classicmono #clouds #Fujifilm #travel #hiking #backcountry #desert #vitrox #boulders #mountains #bigsky #contrast

There is so much to see at Death Valley I almost missed the lunar orb quietly sinking behind the mountains as the morning light caressed the land...as the moon goes. #moonset #black&white #deathvalley #fujifim #classicmono #anseladams #mountains #landscape #fujixt5 #travelphotography #hike #epicmoon

What you can stumble across in the western desert can be truly amazing...tree of life. #landscape #black&white #landscape #SanRafael #hike #travel #classicmono

Rehweiler Germany on a morning I won't soon forget..where the light resides. #Germany #fog #mist #black&white #moody #landscape #iconic #classicmono #Rheinland #blackphotographer

It is the arrival to places such as this that inspires me to take the first step...journey to the falls of the Wasatch. #waterfall #classicmono #black&white #hike #wasatchmountains #landscape #fujifilm

Happy Memorial Day to my fellow Americans and I hope you enjoy the time off. But as calm and happy as your day may be, the world is anything but that. I bring a reminder through images of people protesting injustices whether in our own county or the genocide in Palestine...don't turn away. #protest

A mystic morning in a faraway land called Moab as I bear silent witness to the... sentinels of time. #Moab #black&white #mystic #iconic #fog #landscape #classicmono #morningfog #black&whiteforever #canyonlnads #Utah

A flash back from my first visit to the city that never sleeps. Restless as always, I abandon a perfectly good bed to witness a special bridge all but abandoned in a city of millions except for...the runner. #NewYorkCity #classicmono #black&white #travel #travelphotography #BrooklynBridge #runner

A place I haunted in southern Utah especially in the winter months when it reaches the zenith of beauty and inspiration..Bryce Canyon National Park and the kingdom of the hoodoos. #BryceCanyon #nationalpark #black&white #landscape #roadtrip #travel #hike #monochrome #classicmono #hoodoos #utah

Quote of the day: “If what is right and wrong depends on what each individual feels, then we are outside the bounds of civilization.” — Walter Lippman

A hidden slot canyon in Arizona that was NOT easy to get to but worth every step through mud and over/around boulders...glory in the shadows.

For a moment my attention was distracted from the sand dunes in front of me to a spectacular moment as the one chapter beginning with sunrise and another ending..moonset over Death Valley. #moonset #black&white #monochrome #DeathValley #Fuji #roadtrip #photography #mountains #blackphotogher

I took it all in, from the dunes to the mountains. #roadtrip #deathvalley #landscapephotography #black&white #photography #dunes #fujifilm #monochrome #classicmono #travel #hiking
