Iguazu
Iguazu Falls was just one of the many beautiful places we visited on our almost-three-week trip to South America. (A day-by-day account of our full trip is here, on my other website, visiblewind.com.) A wonderful quote regarding Iguazu is from Eleanor Roosevelt, who reportedly exclaimed “Poor Niagra”! It is spectacular, indeed. And huge! The above image […]
Glencoe Snow & Falls
I’m slowly working my way through my photos from a wonderful photography workshop with one of my favorite photographers, Colin Homes, in the Scottish Highlands. (A few details about the trip, and a few photos, are here, in a previous blog post.) This Glencoe scene — of Buachaille Etive Mor in the distance, and small […]
Small Falls
I live not too far from Shenandoah National Park, in Virginia. It’s a great place for a hike — and for photography! I particularly like its streams and waterfalls.

A waterfall, and rain, in Iceland
Gullfoss is an amazing and huge waterfall in Iceland. This image was taken on a rainy day, so keeping my camera and lens dry was a continual challenge. But I think the falling rain combined with the rising mist added some moody drama to the scene, which I like. No complaints! This falls is powerfully […]
Brúarárfoss
I went on an amazing photo workshop in Iceland last month, led by two great photographers and teachers, Richard Bernabe and Joe Rossbach. The full workshop group had a fantastic time, and each of us now has a great set of new friends. This waterfall, Brúarárfoss (foss = falls), which Richard had scoped out last year, […]
