An off-season walk along Higbee Beach is always peaceful, especially when you have the beach to yourself.

Clouds over Hyper Humus Marsh
Paulinskill WMA
Lafayette, NJ
September 2021
I’ve been waiting for a dynamic sky to photograph this isolated limestone boulder for at least 2 years. I liked how the small clouds on the left and right sides of the frame lit up a little from sunlight for this frame.

Zion National Park in Utah

This shot was taken off of Kolob Terrace Road away from the hustle and bustle of central Zion National Park. I got lucky as a passing car briefly illuminated the mountains to make this shot.

The brisk temperatures in northernmost New Jersey kept away the park visitors at High Point. I even spotted a few snow flurries during my visit.
