I photographed this field during the “Golden Hour”. Enjoy!
Stormy Pacific
After Christmas I thought I would be able to spend some quiet time at Sunset Beach at the Pacific Ocean. Instead we were warned of the high waves at the beach. Of course I had to go and photograph!
Enjoy the image and have a Happy New Year.
PS: I also would like to take the opportunity to thank Peter Hilden for his contribution to our photoblog. Peter shared many outstanding images from his vast portfolio as a travel and street photographer. We all wish him all the best and many more great images!

The Chemung mine is located in the high desert close to Bridgeport, CA. The mine was in operation between 1909 and 1938. I took my this areal shot with my drone. Enjoy!
Fall in Yosemite National Park
Last Sunday I had the opportunity to photograph in Yosemite Valley. Fall has definitely arrived. The dogwood trees are turning beautifully red. The waterfalls carry less water and the clouds are hanging on top of the cliffs. It feels different in the Fall than the Summer. Enjoy the collage!
Morning Myst at Shaver Lake
Last weekend I had the opportunity to photograph at Shaver Lake. The Lake ist located in between Yosemite NP and Kings Canyon at roughly 5500 feet elevation. While the daytime temperature was around 70f, the night were cold. We got up before sunrise and started photographing. Enjoy one of my favorite images.
Lost Places: Former Shooting Range at Fort Ord
Thousands of Infanterie man were trained at Fort Ord, located at the central California coast. The wooden tower was the place where the officer in charge stood and supervised the rifle training.
1994 the Ford was closed and today it is a National Monument. Enjoy!
Pygmy Forest
A pygmy or dwarf forest can develop where there is a certain soil concentration. The vegetation looks unusual and maybe from a different planet. I photographed these trees and shrubs at the Pygmy forest at Salt Point State Park in Northern California. Enjoy!
Convict Lake
Convict Lake is located on the eastern side of the Sierra Nevada. Enjoy!
