A beautiful rainbow arcs over a mountain boasting peak fall foliage. For a 2-hour span on the afternoon that this photo was taken, rainbows were constantly appearing and reappearing as the light filtered through a stormy sky while I explored New Hampshire’s White Mountains. The experience of viewing and photographing such beauty was most certainly the highlight of a weeklong trip to the Whites. Until I witnessed the most intense display of northern lights that I’ve ever experienced just a few hours later, that is. Talk about an unforgettable – and incredibly colorful – day in the mountains!

The rising sun bursts through a beautiful maple tree not once, but twice, thanks to the draping branches of the maple tree stretching all the way down to the water where the sun was reflecting. Prints Available.

On my final morning of camping at Floe Lake, calm winds and a spectacular sunrise finally coincided, allowing for the peaks of the Rockwall and golden larch trees to be perfectly reflected in Floe Lake. Look closely and you’ll see the crescent moon poking through the clouds. Prints Available.

Just after sunrise on a late September morning, I awoke at my backcountry campsite to find a beautiful combination of soft light, fall foliage, and morning fog from a rocky lookout. I utilized a long exposure to reveal the motion of the clouds streaking through the sky and the fog ever so slightly rolling over the mountain ridges. Prints Available.

There’s nothing quite like an evening drive down lonely country roads, with the windows down and some classic rock pumping, to make you feel alive. Stopping at a beautiful destination for the sunset doesn’t hurt either, and on this warm August evening my lingering thoughts about work and responsibilities melted away as I watched the sunset glow hang in the humid air and bring life to the just-bloomed sunflowers that surrounded me.

Shooting stars streak across the beautiful night sky, at the height of the Perseid meteor shower in August 2016. The otherworldly bentonite clay formations in the foreground were the perfect complement to the shooting stars and the colorful nebulae of the Milky Way galaxy. I stayed up all night watching hundreds of shooting stars streak across the sky, and this was undoubtedly one of my favorite and most memorable moments (and photographs) of a year-long cross country road trip.

With an intimate view of Mount Shuksan, campsites don’t get any better than this. On this summer evening, the rain clouds began to break apart just in time to catch some sunset light and reveal the glaciated face of this incredible mountain.
