I used to live in an apartment complex that had a large patch of various wildflowers that would bloom every spring. This one, among many other photos taken during the spring of 2020, is my favorite by far.

Welcome to the new year, everyone. Here's a photo from Black Chasm Caverns, featuring a back-lit drapery of flowstone stalactites deep within the main chamber. Easily one of my favorite shots I've ever taken.

A photo from a few years ago, one that I enjoy mainly for the combination of colors present.

For all the mushroom loving folks, here's a pic from Olympic National Forest of some Rosy Conk (that's what I was told it was, I am not a mycologist lol) growing out of the bottom of a fallen log along one of the walking trails.

Tranquil

This pond was the result of some large storms we had rolling through back in 2018. This is one of the first photos I took when I started learning photography in college, and it has remained one of my favorites ever since.

A Yellow Rumped Warbler, spring of 2020. I was very lucky to have access to a public trail near where I lived in 2020, as I was able to photograph this friend in the trees above me.

Here's a not-so-long exposure (1/2 sec) shot from the north shore of Oahu, back from October of 2022. Easily my favorite "in motion" shot so far.

Merriman Falls - Olympic National Forest, Washington.

This photo was one of many that came out of my roughly week long trip up to Washington back in 2022. This waterfall remains one of my favorite moments. #waterfall #naturephotography #longexposure #washington
