This is the Banff Springs Hotel in Banff, Canada. It is pretty magnificent sitting on the side of this mountain and equality amazing inside. I love old buildings like this and wish there was more of them around here. Although, having this one sitting pretty much alone in the middle of this massive landscape does …

Coeur d’Alene Sunset
This sunset looks particularly crazy because when I shot the photo there was some massive forest fires burning in the area. The entire region was covered in smoke and Coeur d’Alene was right in the thick of it. The smoke provided quite the hazy looking sunset, so for the shot it actually helped my situation. …
Apartment with a View
I shot this photo on Saturday night. At first I thought I was going to shoot at a locationmuch farther from the city, but by the time my friend who was going me showed up at my house we didn’t have enough time to get any farther out of the town. Since I only brought this …
Roomy Beach
A couple of posts back (here), I posted a picture of a public beach in Playa Del Carmen. It was packed! The contrast from that to this privet beach at the resort I was staying at is quite extreme. It wasn’t as nice of a day when I took this picture, but even on the nicest …
Nice View
I shot a wedding in Banff, Alberta Canada this past weekend. Before I headed home I took a little rip up to this spot shot this photo. The Banff Springs Hotel sitting on the side of that mountain provides quite the magical view. Thanks for stopping by, Rob
Mexican Sunset
Last week I was enjoying this beautiful view. It’s nice to be home, but I can’t stay I don’t miss this already! This shot is a 3 raw frame HDR. I shot one photo 2 stops under, one normal and one 2 stop over. I processed the HDR in Photomatix Pro 5. Thanks for stopping …
Vacation in Mexico
I just spent a week in Mexico with my family. My wife and two children arrived in Cancun a day before the rest of the family arrived. So we spend a night in a hotel in what seemed to be a little more local (less touristy) part of the city. The next day when other …
Night of Mountains
These mountains kind of came out of nowhere for me. At the time, I was just trying to get some shots of downtown. After I had all the shots I wanted I decided to point my camera in another direction just to see what I might get. To my surprise the mountains were clearly visible …
U.S. Mail
I shot this photo down on the east side of Lake Coeur d’Alene, Idaho in 2012. The photo never made it up here back then for some reason, so I thought better late than never ;). I took this picture with my trusty old original Canon 5D (on its 2nd shutter) and 24-70mm f/2.8 L. …
Frosty Climb City
I had to climb a pretty big fence for this shot. I had driven by this location a long time ago and thought I might be able to get a good shot if I was to climb up the fence. I just happen to be driving near that location again today and I thought with …
Sun Star
Whenever I make my way out to the mountains I am reminded of how beautiful this part of the country is. I shot this on a random little path I followed off the side of a road around Banff Alberta, Canada. These excursions can be a little difficult and cold, but the results are almost …
Winter Wonderland
Every time I make it out the mountains I fall in love with the landscape. I’m not the biggest winter guy, but it’s pretty hard not to enjoy a view like this. 🙂 Thanks for stopping by, Rob
Sunset Sign
I very quickly shot this photo as I was turning into Banff one evening. I had my camera sitting on my passenger seat and when I got to the turn, I checked to see if there was anyone coming behind me. It looked like I had the corner to my self for the time being, …
