Manic Star Video - Timelapse Tour of the American Southwest

The Video:

The Inspiration:
The Manic Star video was a long project in the making. Years ago I remember sitting on the boulders near Skull Rock in Joshua Tree at night looking up at the big open sky. Growing up in big cities, I had never seen so many stars in my life. There were stars of [...]

Petrified Forest National Park
Petrified Forest National Park

The Petrified Forest is known for its very colorful petrified wood. Most of the wood have crumbled into little bits but there are still large pieces lying around. The area is huge but the park has limited hours to prevent people from coming in late at night to steal some of the petrified wood. Still, [...]

Upper Antelope Canyon
Upper Antelope Canyon

I am currently in Page, AZ. It’s a small town whose main industries are tourism and the nearby Navajo Coal Power plant. As a photographer there are a lot of attractions in the Page area: Upper and Lower Antelope Canyons, Horseshoe Bend, Vermillion Cliffs and the Coyote Buttes and more.
Weather hasn’t been what I call [...]

Contemplating Turtles
Contemplating Turtles

I was shooting in the Los Angeles Arboretum a few days ago and wandered upon a group of turtles perched on top of a floating log.

I’m back from a trip to beautiful canyon country in Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon in Southern Utah. No sign of Neo or Morpheus. But here are some photos that capture some of the beauty I saw while climbing Angel’s Landing, hiking the Narrows and driving around the park. The scenery is breathtaking and [...]

Yosemite National Park
Yosemite National Park

I just got back a couple days ago from an early summer  camping trip to Yosemite National Park, Mono Lake, June Lake and Devi’s Postpile National Monument. It was an amazing trip but I caught a cold on the way back. Not such a bad thing since I got to stay in bed and go [...]
